The genetics
Antarctic
Incomplete DominantAntarctic is a newer incomplete-dominant trait — one copy is visually expressed, two copies produce a super form (Superantarctic). Crucially, Antarctic is ALLELIC to Arctic: they occupy the same gene location, so they do not stack like unrelated traits. A snake cannot independently carry both Superarctic and Superantarctic. One Arctic allele plus one Antarctic allele produces the 'Antarctic Arctic' compound — a distinct combined expression, not a simple stack. Plan Arctic/Antarctic pairings carefully.
Anaconda x2
Incomplete DominantSuperconda is the two-copy (super) form of the Anaconda gene — not a separate gene. It produces an extreme reduction in pattern on the body, often resulting in a nearly patternless or greatly simplified appearance. The head stamp remains. It occurs when a hognose inherits Anaconda from both parents.
What makes a Antarctic Superconda
- Two copies of Anaconda — the 'Superconda' super form.
- One copy of Antarctic — the single-gene Antarctic form (incomplete dominant, allelic with Arctic).
This describes the genetics of the animal itself — not the odds from a pairing. Outcome odds are the Genetics Calculator's job (coming soon).
