Off-topic, I suppose, but what's with all the secrecy? It makes it hard to figure out what's going on and seems like a backward step in the process of learning about sugar glider genetics, etc.

lol, I hear ya! I can see both sides of it. It does seem counter-productive, but I also understand the desire to be the first to reproduce a special color. Most of this stuff is uncharted territory! oooooh <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> Look how many chinchilla colors there are and it all started from one color!

Years ago there was also a breeder/broker/illegal importer/something rather in Florida claiming to have whites. (I don't know if they were talking about albinos or BEW's, if they even had any in the first place) Apparently there was a male that was sold out to someone who produced hets with it and the white male eventually died, leaving only hets. I as well have 3 "possible" hets from the original white, I just got them a few weeks ago from a good friend of mine who is pregnant with triplets and had to sell them. I previously haven't owned gliders for 5 years or so, but have been in close communication with several breeders and glider friends over the years. I doubt anything will happen, and I certainly won't bring this up again, but wanted to put in the word that there might be some whites of some kind (?) popping out (And quite possibly these were the offspring of the wild caught white (?)) because I don't know who all else would have offspring from this original broker or if this was actually true. Only time will tell I guess.

It's a t+ (tyrosinase positive) albino and the correct term for the mutation is 'Caramel'. I have told this to all the 'right' people, but I feel that I'm considered a rogue of sorts by some of the higher ups 'within' the glider community, which, of course, puts me on the 'pay me no mind' list. I beleive it was "turn on, tune in, and drop out" and not "turn off, tune out, and drop in". God, I wish they could remember this. I wish they could 'get back'. Another funny thing is,......I've pretty much given most of these people the information on genetics that they've acquired (the correct information anyway) and needed to make the things that are happening within their breeding colonies happen. Before anyone that shouldn't tries to call me out on this, remember that I keep my e-mails. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I'm spinning off,...........'Caramel' is a recessive trait that has been established in ball pythons, reticulated pythons, and boa constrictors for a few years now. There are several forms/degrees of albinism, but the most common is the t- (or tyrosinase negative) albino. Because tyrosinase is the enzyme that promotes black pigment, the t- albino is completely lacking dark pigment. Because tyrosinase is present in the t+ albinos, they are not entirely lacking, with the exception of the eyes for some reason, dark pigment. In answer to your question, it had to have been two hets for caramel or a 'genesis' of genes, so to speak, within a baby produced by two normals. Btw- Does anyone know if Susan has started selling any of their offspring? I am, proud to say, '#2' on her and Cliff's(?) list for one of the Caramels or hets. I'm not on the board too often, so if someone knows the answer to my question and wouldn't mind, send it to me at []j.thurber@sbcglobal.net[/] . I plan on contacting her soon, but if you already know, I'd appreciate the information incase it takes me some time to get in touch with her. Thanks, Jason <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Hey, that's some great technical info about the albinism. I never knew that there was any variety in albinism. So, yeah, they were pretty lucky to get the creamino huh?

Link for 'everyone'................. http://www.newenglandreptile.com/genetics_intro.htmlAnd it doesn't just apply to snakes. It's pretty universal. I believe the ringtail to be a 'piebald' (I also believe that Kati has the right to sell it for however much without a bunch of righteous tripe from people that do it for a living).

I'm a "lurker" here but I wanted to say, "great post Jason"! That's one of the best genetics posts regarding morphs I have seen here yet. I get a different answer on whether the WFB trait is recessive or dominant depending on which breeder I ask. I guess the glider genetics haven't been totally figured out yet. Of course that is what makes workimg with color morphs so much fun. And frustrating sometimes too!

I think people try to over simplify genetics and in turn make it much more complex than it actually is... I'll use your example, WFB's. WFB's can be produced by 1 WFB/1 normal parent about 60% of the time. Since that is the case, it can't be recessive because the joeys would be normal colored. Since they are produced, at all with normal/WFB pairs and considering the high rate they are produced at (over 50%) that strongly points to WFB being a dominant trait. What people here tend to forget is that dominant doesn't nessicarily mean that it will be produced 100% of the time. It means that it will happen most of the time, which anything over 50% is most...

Thanks for replying, Leyna. Can I ask then, why is it that WFB "Hets" are sold sometimes. If a trait is dominant or co dominant, there is no heterozygous form. For instance, any normal colored babies from a WFB to normal breeding would not carry the WFB trait at all, and therefore should not be sold as "hets". Right?

Actually, I there's a post right now about a WT in a nesting box in Australia. Upon closed examination, it turns out that this glider is not a a WT, but actually a ringtail. I think that ringtails are a variation that's independant of leucistics, but that the leucistic gene seems to bring out the trait. I personally have a male glider that has a very think white ring on his tail. I don't know if the WT gene and the ringtail gene are related or not, but one of his joeys has produced a WT joey (it was only a couple white hairs).

I am pretty sure that the ringtail is co dominant because rains mom was paired with a champange but you need to have the leucistic gene in with it or it probally wont produce anything! But I love ringtails and one day hope to own one or two!

Leyna, so you think it would be beneficial for the ringtail to be paired with a white tip? I just got off the phone with the white tip breeder in Texas named Suzette. According to her, white tip is showing up more in the second and third generation down HET than they are in the white tip to white tip pairings. Since she seems to be the only white tip breeder who is strictly breeding white tips to white tips and hets to hets at this point, we would need to take her observations into light. Anyway, my point is I don't think that a pairing of a white tip to a ringtail that originated from the leucistic line should be paired with a white tip...

</font><blockquote><font class="small">Quote:</font><hr /> [:"green"]Also kati payed half of what she was asking and she only had her for 3 weeks! But it was up to her and her parents![/] <hr /></blockquote><font class="post"> Who are we to judge what she resold the glider for? If there were no profit in color breeding, would large scale color breeders stop breeding? Would small scale color breeders stop breeding? Color breeding any animal that is more rare will be profitable, if it wasn't, would people be buying them to breed? I don't think so. The person who bought her is happy with her, and in the buyer's eyes, she was worth the $2,500 + shipping she paid for her, that's all that matters. Anyway, let's get this back on topic, sorry to have side tracked a bit!

I read that the parents of the albinos had stump-tails - were they rescues? Or did they self-mutilate?

They were in a pair with different ones then their mates did something and then they didnt think they could sell the two so they put them together to breed and they got those.
