genetics - what will i get?

[terracolson]

I know i asked a little before about this but i am still confused

How do i find out more about my bearded dragon and what its babies would be?

Goal will be to breed my leather back red (when shes old enough) with my sandfire.

How to i figure out all that dominate and not dominate stuff?
Should i or could i consider a male leather back for a silk back?

I just completed my first season of breeding and loved it!!!

Well if you breed your leatherback you will "in theory" get 50% leathers and 50% normal's. The color of them is not genetic and the babies will look like a mixture of their parents colors. If you get a silkback and breed it to a normal you should "in theory" get all leathers but i guess breeders are saying you get some normal's but mostly leathers.

If you breed a male leather to a female leather you will "in theory" get 25% silks, 50% leathers and 25% normals. If you breed a male silkback to a female leather "in theory" it will be 50% silks and 50% leathers.

And read this thread if you haven't yet it will explain the real morphs that are out there in dragons http://www.beardeddragon.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=154758.

If you have any other questions i will answer to the best of my knowledge.
