snake postI'd like to talk about one of my favorite ball python morphs, the banana gene. It is an incomplete dominant trait first produced by NERD in 2003. Incomplete dominant means an animal only needs one copy of the gene for it to express itself, however a "super" (homozygous) form exists when both parents pass the gene on to their offspring.

An adult and baby banana ball python. As you can see, they are bright yellow with black spots as adults, looking very much like a banana. They have white bellies. This is a different gene from albinism, and they have normal eyes. Here's a wild type for comparison:

One thing that is very unique to the banana gene is it is sex linked (the only ball python morph that does this, not sure about other animals). Female bananas will produce equal split of male and female, banana and wild type. However in males, it is linked to how the sire inherited the gene. If he inherited it from his father's side, he is a "male maker" and almost all of the bananas he produces will be male. The sex split and morph split are the same (50/50), but almost all the males will have the gene and almost all the females will be wild type. Same if he inherited the gene from his mother, just reversed (this is a "female maker"). A common myth/misunderstanding is that this holds true all the time, it does not. A male maker can still produce female banana ball pythons, and male wild types. Same for female makers, in the other direction. Roughly 3% of snakes produced from male bananas will be one of these instead of the "expected" outcome.


These are both super bananas if you wanted to see what they look like ^^

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Gonna be trying my best going forward to learn coding, python since this mega is snake related. Some course or some such offered through my library. 22 hours and I'll go from zero to hero it says, plus as with everything there's a discord because why not. The discord is more for students of the course apparently so I fully expect to see some more transes there if anyone is in it that is.

Python is the only language I even kinda know, its nice I'm a fan. Hope you have fun with it.

[โ€“] Wmill@hexbear.net 8 points 2 weeks ago

Thank you, I do hope this too if nothing else I'm having fun learning some new

I liked using kattis and other websites with little coding problems like it. There's a list specifically for python that's called something like.... 12 little problems? It's somewhere online, easy stuff like "reverse a string except for its 3rd character."

I just "got" python and c# and assembly. For me it was easier when I figured out the computer does exactly what I tell it, like an evil genie looking for loopholes lol. I liked using my TI 89 to program in whatever language that was supposed to be in middle school. I never took it beyond some undergraduate courses but every once in a while I'll encounter an interesting math problem and use my shitty coding skills to see some result

Good advice once I get started I'll try tackling problems like this.
