Spiders

CJBianco Nov 29, 2004 09:33 AM

Here's my latest question...

Since Spiders are (or at least were) considered co-dom, I'm wondering about homozygous leathal. I know we've touched on this possibility before, but I don't remember anyone stating observed anomolies in hatch rates. Does anyone know if Spider x Spider results in a normal clutch size...with a normal hatch success rate?

Thanks,
Chris

Spiders are dominant, there is no homozygous phenotypical form.

Haven't heard of any difference in clutch size though.
