Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

2005 Mex mex pairing....
I hope these two will produce beautiful offspring. The dark phase Mex mex is the female and the male is a silvery splitbanded Mex mex. If the traits are co-dominant then I should have some dark splitbanded offspring, at least that is what I am hoping for.

John,
I can't wait to see what these will produce and what traits will be most dominant in the offspring. It will be interesting.
Nice pairing,
Uncloudy

John,
Do have any idea which traits from breeding this dark phase mex mex to a split band mex mex will be recessive or dominant?
Would they be het for dark phase or split band if not apparent on the offspring?
Sorry for the questions I don't know much about genetics, but like in the earlier post it will be very interesting.
Thanks,
Chris

Chris,
If the traits are codominant then the offspring will show both dark ground color and splitbands. (double homozygous)
If the traits are recessive then they will be normal looking but will carry each trait. (double heterozygous)
If one is recesssive and the other dominant I will have splitband offsprings carrying the dark gene or dark offspring carrying the splitband gene. (homozygous hets)
I am hoping that they are codominant. I have seen dark splitbands before and think they could be anomalies. This breeding will be my first with such traits and will prove alot, but not until I breed some of their offspring will I know the genetics for sure. I hope I will have enough to keep some for myself since most are reserved already. Who said mexmex were hard to move??
I hope this helps Chris,
John Lassiter
