In preparation to promote Garter Snakes to a top level category, we need to build a trait list for the genes and combos.
For each of these, we need to know what kind of gene it is (recessive/incdom/dom) OR what combination of genes represent it.
Please add anything that is missing or correct me where I am wrong.
If you know anyone that works with Garter Snakes, send them a link to this thread and ask them to help out.
As this is such a huge group to work with, I have broken them down into groups along with their scientific name for clarification.
Each group has its list of known morphs within (if they have any).
