Green-cheek Conure Genetic and Mutations:
Dominant Genes:
Dominant Genes is only one parent needs to carry the gene for all babies to visually display the mutation. The Dominant Gene will pretty much trump any other that may be involved. The "Wild Green" is Dominant base color, if a pure (non- split) wild green is paired to say a recessive mutation such as blue, all babies will be green split to blue.
Co-Dominant: Only one parent needs to have the gene for any babies to be visual this is referred to as Single Factor, However if both parents carry the gene then it's considered double factor the color is stronger compared to a single factor.
Recessive:
The Recessive genes means both parents have to have this gene to get any visuals, either the parent needs to be visual or split, with recessive genes, both females and males can be split to it.
Sex linked:
The Sex linked gene is pretty easy to understand, as the name says it is Sex Linked, this means females can only be visual they cannot be split to it. Males can be visual or split to it though. This is also an easy way to sex babies
More details will come up later............Thank you
