White-Sided Amel Beast Corn Pics

I tried the link again and typed it in and it still doesn't work.

You have your supporters and I have mine, it think it's best we just agree to disagree and move on.

Thanks
 
if you had 100% 50/50 offspring they would all carry the 2 different family genes equal , right .

well breed a pair that have non allelic albino genes and test the theory, you would think being 50/50 they would carry both albino genes at the same time, well thats not correct, some will have both some will not, the % is random and has been proved.

But you are still wrong. Think of f1 hybrids as het for black rat and het for corn snake. Just as breeding two het for amels together can produce 1. amels, 2. het for amel and 3. normal. these F1 hybrids can produce 1.pure black rats, 1.pure corn snakes and 3. everything in between. It all depends on which alleles the F2's inherit. Of course matching all the genes to produce pure black rats or pure corns is extremely unlikey.
 
You can't be het for one species or another, it just doesn't work that way. Being a corn isn't a recessive gene just the same as being a black rat isn't. I have spoken with several genetics professors and for the most part they agree with the my stance on this issue. There is a tiny chance (approx) 0.000001% that you could breed a pair of hybrids that are for example 25% corn 25% honduran 25% brooks 25% yellow rat and you could get a "pure" corn out of it but even then though it may look like a pure corn it still has those other species influence in it.

This thread has been dead for almost a year now. I just don't see the point of re-hashing the same thing over and over.

Aztec- Thanks for the compliment.

Of course. I was using it as an EXAMPLE, trying to show you a way of thinking about genes. I assume you don't want to learn. sorry
 
I'm going to do more research on this and post my findings.

I love to learn, I went to college for 6 years and have 2 degrees, both in science based fields. I've been breeding reptiles for over 10 years and hybrids almost as long. I know how this stuff works so if you have more experience with hybrids than I do, feel free to educate me my friend.

Btw how long have you been breeding hybrids and how many degrees do you have?
