extreme genetics

vjl4 Sep 14, 2005 02:08 PM

I was thinking about the genetics of extremes and had a few questions hopefully some of you will be able to answer.

What do you get with the following crosses:

extremeXnormal =
sibling cross of above =

extremeXextreme = all extreme? or a mix of hypo and extreme (if so what are the percents of each). If you have a lot of clutchs to compare what are the averages?

extremeXhypo = ?
sibling cross of above =

thanks,
Vinny

I don't think anyone bred a extreme to a normal yet.

One breeder bred a extreme x extreme and produced extremes and a very nice looking hypo.

Hanleys Herps bred a extreme to a hypo and produced very nice looking hypos.

I think Mike Falcon bred some female hypo siblings from the extreme hypo father. Hope This Helps Scott
