Pet Snakes -
We strive to provide easy to understand, practical information to help the new snake owner take care of their animals. At Pet Snakes we want to provide information that will help you enjoy your reptile more than ever.
All living creatures inherit a pair of genes, one from each parent. The allele is one of those genes. If both allele's are the same it produces "normal" characteristics. If they are competing with one another the dominant allele's traits will win out. Identical alleles are homozygous and two different alleles are heterozygous.
We hope you have enjoyed visiting us here at Pet Snakes! We take caring for snakes very seriously and hope to pass that along to you!
