Answering some questions...
I've been away for a bit again, more parental research, but I did have time to quickly reply to a couple reader questions. More on the parental research in a later post.
How many genes determine coloration in dragons? Are you red or green or brown?
I am red, though I don't know if I've yet mentioned that. I'm not sure about the genetics of it all, but one would guess that red was a dominant gene. I can tell you this much, and you can help me figure it out, dragon colors are absolute, they are either red or green (or black or whatever), but never a mix of colors or a shade between color.
Did you visit the mountain where you were born?
You'll have to keep reading to find that out. I am sure it will get covered one way or the other.
More late,
Jack

Thanks for the answers to the questions, Jack. I'm sure I'll think of more. *eyes the other two comments* Ah, the joys */sarcasm* of blogspam.
