There is more than just Dom and Recessive... Co-dominant is the Hets to Dom, and there are several combos of such. This is one place to start.

Have fun!

not really, though that is a popular misconception.

Codominant - an allele that causes the homozygous form to look different than wild type and the heterozygous form to have traits of both. (All three look different from each other.)
Dominant - an allele that causes the homozygous form and the heterozygous form to look the same as each other, but different than wild type.

With a co-dominant trait, there is a definite visual difference between the het, the super, and the "normal".
With a dominant trait, one cannot consistently and accurately distinguish between the het and super forms.

Ralph Davis' site will give you a pretty good break down on most morphs.

Thank you sooo much guys/gals.I appreciate the help!

Thanks for the correction Harald...

I was typing too quickly for my brain to catch up and realize my mistake.

I have read that Mojave x Mojave can produce a blue-eyed lucy- is this true? I can't find the site where I found it.

yes, correct me if iam wrong anybody, i believe any of these combos makes blue eyed lucys

mojave X mojave , butter x butter ,lesser x lesser or russo x any of the three. and i i think the mixing of the three creates a 'whiter' snake, so its said.

havent gotten the chance to work with em myself, but working in a place like i do i sure get to see alot of em daily. lol

You can look on my website I made a list of all the morphs and morph combos there that I add to whenever I can. Here ya go.
