Leopard

What Leopard looks like

Broken pattern with alien heads

Pattern and color modifier that produces a distinctive reduced, more open pattern with enhanced yellow tones. Heterozygous Leopard shows a more "spaced out" pattern with aberrant elements. Homozygous Super Leopard shows dramatically reduced pattern with extensive blushing. The Leopard gene is particularly valued for its pattern-disrupting effects in combination with other morphs.

How to identify it: Leopard (het): more open/spaced pattern, subtle pattern aberrations, slightly enhanced coloring. Super Leopard: dramatically reduced pattern, extensive blushing.

How Leopard is inherited

Leopard follows a incomplete dominant inheritance pattern, carried on the Leopard allele (locus Leopard).
