Hello everyone,
I am kinda new to keeping panther chameleons, and I was wondering about some genetic things.
So, there are several different color ''morphs'' (not sure if they are called morphs). If you mix them, will they combine or will it just be a 50 percent chance of getting the color from the father or from the mother? Is it mixed often or are breeders trying to keep their chameleons as pure as possible? Are there dominant and recessive types (like with ball pythons) or are they all equal? I've seen some pictures on the forum here of nosy be x ambilobe. Also, are ambilobe red bar and blue bar completely different?
And what would happen if you breed
Ambilobe x Nosy Faly
Mitsio x Nosy be (would they be green?)
I cant find anything about chameleon genetics on the internet, I would like to know more about it
