NEW body pattern!!!!

Posted by Erin Smith on November 07, 1999 at 09:13:36:

I discovered a new body pattern! Yay! Actually, I think I'm second (or later) to have bred it, but the first to recognize that it is NOT a tuxedo!

I'm calling it the Flame pattern, because it reminds me of the flames on old stock cars (how often have you heard that now?)

It's the result of mating Male Cobras with Female Tuxedos... the reverse mating produces (huh?) Normals (weird...)

Normals and Cobras produce normals, and Cobras and Normals produce cobras...

Also, for Normal and Tux the body type of the offspring is the same as the body type of the MOTHER. So if you want Blue Tails, breed a blue tux male to a red tail female (you'll probably get purple, orange, and all sorts of weird colors... but it'll have a NORMAL body to work from, and carries blue!) Or if you want a red tux, breed the reverse. Etc.

The included link goes to a page with pics of the new pattern, as well as all the other results from my body experiment. 8) At least through to the F1 generation, next week I'm working on F2.
