    Re: genetics question

    If you have a male albino, His alleles would be "aa" where "A" would be the normal looking phenotype and "a" is the albino phenotype. Phenotype means what they physically look like. Since albino is a recessive gene, you would technically want to use the lowercase letter for that allele.

    Re: genetics question

    Say you have a het axanthic snake. His punnet label would look like this: Aa. That shows that he is carrying one allele for each color form, but since the normal color is dominant, that is the one that he displays. to help you, I drew a quick punnet showing what would THEORETICALLY happen if you cross two hets. You can get more or less axanthics in your litter, or even none at all. The ones that look normal will be possible hets.

    Nice work, Shannon. You might want to add that to our genetics section in the articles forum. The articles are in Wiki format so any member can add to or edit the information in there.
