Hidden Gene????

All these genetics is making my head spin!! What is the hidden gene? is it only in Woma's?

I may be getting something with hidden gene, so I probably should have a slight grasp of what I'm getting.

There's no hidden gene in womas...it's just what the morph itself is called. Think it of two different imported snakes that were both named womas so one was called a hidden gene woma. If you are buying a snake with a supposed 'hidden gene'...run for the hills!!! Or at least don't pay a dime extra for it unless it comes directly from Ralph Davis or Kevin McCurley

why: They cost a bit too much to be trusting the genetics to a "trust" factor.

No worries, I'm drooling over NERD stuff.

So the hidden gene is recessive?

Hidden Gene x normal = ??
Hidden Gene x Hidden Gene = ??

Help a dimwit understand please.

Hidden gene woma is co-dom. Hidden gene x normal = hidden gene womas and normals
Hidden gene x hidden gene = super form called pearl balls and they don't do well at all...genetics downer
