ALL Bearded Dragon Morphs | All Single-trait Bearded Dragon Morphs

[@BombaclaatGatofish]

Thanks for making this video. It can be a bit confusing trying to learn the different morphs at first and this is very helpful

[@JTBReptiles]

Glad it could help!

[@lizard1533]

could you do a video going over/ exsplaining genetics. Its something i struggle to grasp but something I really need and want to know!

[@JTBReptiles]

Sure, I’ll make a video about it in a few weeks! Thanks for watching :)

[@Amy_the_Lizard]

Excellent informational video! Good job; might use it as visual reference for a project in my animal breeding class if that's all right

[@cheesygamer0151]

I have a leather back and after she sheds sooo smooth kinda like velvet almost

[@rhyswerner1748]

Do you recommend a normal beardie or a leatherback? I hope to get a citrus yellow leatherback but idk if I should just go for the regular

[@pavle957]

Where is Blue Bars?

[@Decosta89]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't color schemes classified as phases and patterns/scale changes classified as morphs?

[@JTBReptiles]

Nope. I quote from Google: morph: each of several variant forms of an animal or plant :)

[@Decosta89]

My question was rhetorical. Google isn't a specific source. However, "A Naturalist's Way With Words," by Kevin J. Cook, can better explain it. The answer is yes, there is a difference between phases and morphs. Majority of reptile enthusiasts know this, which makes me question your knowledge on reptiles at all?www.wildlifewindow.com/A_Naturalist_s_Words.html

[@JTBReptiles]

@@Decosta89 I think that you're splitting hairs for no real cause here. Reptile hobbyists generally refer to any mutation in shape, size, colour or combination thereof as a 'morph'. In the field of birding, as is mostly addressed in that article, and likely also in other more purely naturalist fields, more technical and precise terminology is needed, but for everyday terms it just isn't. The word "nice" came from a Latin root meaning "to not know". It later went through reforms and in Middle English the equivalent meant "stupid". If I say "it is a nice day today", you know what I mean: that it is pleasant outside. Yes, it makes sense to refer to the word "nice" with a precise context of its meaning if you are studying words, but not if you're just talking about the here and now.

Is there any health issues with morphs?

[@JTBReptiles]

Yes: lots of inbreeding involved, so they are often predisposed to disease. Some morphs in particular are intrinsically ill - albinos never survive very long at all (hence why you never see them), silkbacks are always torn up, there are issues translucents seem to come up with regularly... The more wild-looking, the better, really. With that being said, you'd be surprised at the variability in colour in wild dragons. My own dragon - orange all over - looks pretty much the same as a wild dragon in a documentary I watched on CuriosityStream! So to that end, I wouldn't really worry if a dragon is a different colour to brown so long as its scales and eyes are more-or-less wild-type, unless the colour is produced through lots of inbreeding, as in the case of blood red dragons.

@@JTBReptiles are leatherbacks healthy and are they a good choice?

[@jajajajaja2124]

I have a bearded that's like grey looking but his head is showing some yellowish around his head and reddish around his eye and has a straight line going down his back and circles on the sides (like 5 on each side) what kind is he

[@jajajajaja2124]

I was thinking of him like a classic normal

[@Amy_the_Lizard]

@@jajajajaja2124 Sounds like he's very unusual looking and hard to classify; there's a lot of beardies out there that don't really fall under any of the main groups because they have some gene or combination of genes that isn't very common or widely being bred for

[@Daliena]

Was hoping this was an actual video... it is a power point presentation.

[@rhyswerner1748]

Better than nothing I guess

[@B-mang]

Wheres the song from tho

[@bobbymalta73]

Very interesting speaces. Thks for Sharing!

[@matteocademartori]

Wow this video it's amazing 👏🏻👏🏻😱😱

[@JTBReptiles]

Thank you!

[@roseliakasim9774]

I want to buy that..

[@Dirge4july]

Orange and citrus are colors not morphs
