Multiple recessive mutations

[Ssthisto]

My current dream quad would be a Glacier Stripe - Anery, Amel, Lavender, Stripe.

I have a pair of Anery hets for this now - and they'll produce me the following:
Anery
Anery Stripe
Lavender Anery
Lavender Anery Stripe
Snow
Snow Stripe
and
Glacier (Snow Lavender)
Glacier Stripe

I'd also like an Avalanche - Amel, Anery, Bloodred - or a Coral Avalanche (Plus hypo!) ... with any luck, my Charcoal(Anery?) het Bloodred will also turn out to be het amel and hypo....

Little Bob - coral snow motley :wavey:

Did I mention he'll be breeding this year? :grin01:

I knew i wasn't lying about that first one! :grin01:

Indeed I understand their genetic makeup, but has the "dilute" gene spread further than anery mots yet? If not does anyone know who is working with this particular trait and where they plan on putting it to use?

Rob Stevens at Bayou Reptiles has probably already made some crosses into other colors with his dilutes but probably needs a little more time before he has any F2 results to reveal.

I'll be pairing a female anery motley het dilute with a granite this spring, keeping all the babies in hopes of getting at least a couple that are het dilute and bloodred. I have to wait for my homo dilute females to grow up before pairing them with other morphs. And I REALLY need to get a homo dilute male.

I don't know if you count motley striped als 2 genes, but if you do:

Amel hypo motley stripe:

Thanks for the info Susan, I was hoping you would chime in

Any blue mot updates for us?

I had a anery, amel, lavender stripe/patternless.....that's the only quad I've had that I can remember off the top of my head.

you MUST post pictures!?

So Glacier has replaced Snopal as the more common term for lavender snows? I've been seeing Glacier and wasn't sure what it was. :shrugs:

 

[D&LCornSnakes]

here some pictures of my triple recessives.

ghost stripe (anery, hypo, stripe)

blue motley(anery, dilute, motley)

pastel motley(anery, hypo, motley)

 

[D&LCornSnakes]

whoops hit the submit button early, heres a couple more.

snow motley(amel, anery, motley)

pink & green snow stripe(amel, anery, stripe)

 

[snake5007]

Is dilute an actual gene now? :shrugs:

 

[D&LCornSnakes]

all signs indicate yes.

 

[cornmorphs]

some awsome pics on there, and despite not liking granites the stripe is awesome.

From what I remember, it's one of the names that Ultimate Cornsnakes made up (Like the "Yetti" for a Hypo Snow Motley ).

Snopal is the more common term for Lavender Snows.

I have to admit I'm going to continue using the name Glacier.

I personally think Snopal, Blopal, Ghopal and any other name ending in 'opal' sound daft... and at least "Glacier" is still in the formula of "mutation that results in anerythristic appearance" + "Amelanistic" = "snow/ice themed name". In that respect Opal kind of irritates me too

And we don't have a name for Hypo Lavender yet that goes with the "Anerythristic-appearing mutation" + "Hypomelanism" = "haunting-related name"

That said, "Yeti" for Coral Snow Motley doesn't sit right with me either - because you don't get specific names for Morph + Pattern other than "Morph Pattern".... though Sunglow when it is applied to Amel Motley animals comes close.

My coral snow mots (or stripes - they were actually more cubed when they were little):
Duggin

Coral (this girl is almost solid white)

I produced some babies last year that are het amel, caramel, and stripe; possible het anery, charcoal, and hypo. I also have some that are het charcoal, anery, and amel; possible het hypo and stripe. I look forward to raising them up and seeing what I get out of them!

I also have plans on crossing some other morphs that will produce multiple hets in hopes of producing some quad/quint homozygous animals. I'm not going to spill the beans on those, though

Stunning animals Terri

We don't expect you to spill the beans by any means - Although little hints are much appreciated LOL

Thanks for your participation in this thread

Its nice to see a lot of old faces (or member icons as it were) around again!

There will always be debate when it comes to new morph names. Hypo lavs are being called amethyst quite regularly in the UK. I just like hypo lav. I don't like the term plasma though... I won't class any lavender diffused animals I may acquire in the future as plasma.

Although I like the "precious stone" theme thats started to appear. ie the Topaz corn - Nice name, suits the overall appearance. Granite has stuck, and it works. As has pewter. Stones and gem names based on appearance has great potential.

It all comes down to what is generally accepted. I agree that white animals will always have some sort of white/cold weather reference ie snows, glaciers (I would actually consider using that term as Snopal doesn't wash with me) blizzards, avalanche, whiteout etc.

However whoever produces new morphs will have (to some extent) a "right" to call it whatever they want. But if it doesn't wash with the buyers then theres no way the "superduperthingymebob" will stick. General concensus always overpowers ones individuals preferences - when it comes to markets like this. And generally so far, corn morphs are appropriately named IMO.

Well...here he is. I originally thought he was a snow stripe/patternless animal but when bred to 2 different lavenders he produced 100% lavenders so I must assume he is homozygous for lavender as well. He also happens to be het for hypo too!

Why oh why did you not keep him?!

Beautiful animal.
