Welcome to the amazing field of bearded dragon genetics! These amazing lizards are available in a wide range of hues and patterns, including vivid oranges and unique appearances like hypo and transparent. However, have you ever wondered how they manage to have such distinctive looks? Apparently, it's all inherited!
Every Bearded Dragon has unique genes that determine its appearance.
Additionally, Bearded Dragons get these characteristics from their dragon parents, much like you might look like your parents or grandparents.
Let's now discuss recessive and dominant qualities. Certain characteristics, such as being orange, are dominant, meaning they are more potent and likely to manifest. Some traits, such as a unique pattern, are recessive, which means that in order for them to manifest in the baby dragons, both parents must pass them on. This makes them weaker.
However, it goes beyond simply inherited characteristics. Bearded dragon breeders also have a significant impact! They choose which dragons to breed together to produce offspring with specific traits. In many cases, they even use scientific techniques to produce entirely original looks!
This book will therefore help you understand how genes work and why these lizards look so cool, whether you're a professional breeder or just a fan of Bearded Dragons. It's simple to read and packed with interesting information, making it ideal for anyone interested in the genetics of these amazing animals!
