Notation Question

Hutch96 Jun 09, 2005 07:19 PM

Can someone explain (or tell me where to look it up) what the notation means 'x.x' (eg 1.2 or 0.1) when you are talking about what kind of snakes you have? I know if has something to do with the genes...

Thanks,
Hutch.

P.S. more stupid questions to follow

First: welcome to the forum, second yes there is such a thing as an amber corn.
now for the lesson

1.2.3 means i have 1 male 2 females and 3 unknowns
therefore

2.3.5 means i have 2 males 3 females and 5 unknowns

and btw saying there are more dumb questions to come is wrong, first there is no such thing as a dumb question, second there will be an infinite amount of questions.

Thanks for the information. It is nice to know what people actually mean when you are reading there posts.
So I guess I have a 0.0.1 Amber Corn

Cheers,
Hutch.
