I have been looking for a page that has the dragon morphs. I was wondering what is co-dom, dom and recessive with these little guys. Any help would be great.

I'm pretty new with dragons myself but the way I understand it is the colors aren't techically morphs- they're just line bred for those specific colors. I believe all the actual morphs (hypo, translucent, leatherback, silkback) are all recessive. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong!

I believe that's correct from what I have been told as well :yessir:

There is also a co dom leatherback morph also.

Thank you for the help. This is what I came up with from reading ,but was not 100% sure. How can you tell the difference in leatherbacks?

I have also been told that certain lines of tigers are dominant. Do you guys know anything about that?

The Italian leatherbacks tend to be a little more smoother.But knowing the lineage and who they came from is the best way

As i said before knowing the lines are you best way.
Alot of people sell what they just think looks like a tiger as a tiger.

We know of one dominant line of Tiger that Clint Koltz of Down Under Dragonz has and a few people have that line, this is his website www.downunderdragonz.com He explains the Tiger Trait on his page.
Hope this helps

Dont know why i didnt think of that.
He has some very nice tigers.Got some off him a few years back.

Thank you again. Great link. It is interesting that the offspring are 100% tiger. That is different from dominant snake traits.

Jeepguy, darling, on the website it said that their dragons with the tiger trait are all homozygous for the trait. Therefore, they have 100% chance of passing on the trait when outcrossed. It's like any other trait that is dominant. Homozygous dominant bred to het or homo recessive will yield all phenotypic dominant.
