Again, just because they aren't shaped like a bp does not mean they aren't an sb. At two months there's no way to peg every sb in any spawn, perhaps the most obvious one's, but that's it. It'd be at least another month, possibly two, before you could id them all.
I love that everyone that disagrees with my 50% figure has absolutely no basis for it. There's always a disclaimer after they dispute my 50% quote "I wasn't looking for sb's." I wasn't culling for sb's" "I've only raised X amount of fry from that spawn" and my favorite, "there were only 2 shaped like a blood parrot." etc, etc, etc.
It's simple genetics, we can all agree that this is not a recessive gene, sb offspring show up in the first generation, that means it's a dominant gene. If you cross a dominant gene to a normal, 50% of the offspring will express the gene, full stop, period, the end.
I also love that even when I was proving this all out, and consistently producing fairly high quality sb texas, no one believed it then either...yet no one could explain how I was doing it. And I might add, no one else was doing it at the time. Weird right?
