Re: T.s.sirtalis genetics question

Darn those co-dominant genes! I had an Okeetee corn snake with Aztec/zig-zag co-dominant gene. 3 years and 3 healthy hatchings produced only 2 snakes with the trait (amazingly they had more Aztec than their mother!). Only 2 (and this only in the 3rd breeding) out of a total of around 50 neonates.

I try to avoid them..... Hmmmm, but these flames look awfully attractive.....

But then so do Bloodred corns, and they can be a genetic nightmare!
