Sorry I know this is totally newbie question but I was wondering if any of the aberrancies/morphs I see in Pueblans are genetic, "sockhead", "halloween", "oreo", etc. How about the coloration variations, apricot and hypo?
Thanks in Advance

They do come in hypo..my favorite of the Pueblans..Joe
Halloweens and oreos are not recessive. Breeding 2 oreos will not always give you oreos. They are basically random aberrancies.
Sockheads and apricots may or may not be, I'm not sure.
Hypo pueblans are recessive.

~~~~Well, The hypo trait is recessive. The apricot is a co-dominant trait(like tangerine is with Hondurans), in that if you breed a richly colored apricot to a normal, you will get mostly varying degrees of intermediate coloration. The other mutations you mentioned are much less predictable.
