Cutting eggs.. Why we do it.. Sad pics attached.

Ok, I get what you mean with the defected genes being passed with the gene we breed for. Yet the problems merely come from us stacking genes and inbreeding than from the mutant itself. They might have a larger chance to carry another defected gene, but we cause it to appear and spread. I was just wondering, could it be that a defected gene like the wobble is caused by the same event that caused the mutant morph gene to change, because they are close together? That would make sense...
 
The Spider gene has a defective trait. A Spider will wobble. A Pastel will not. You bred them together and make Bumblebee. That Bee will wobble. But the Pastels and Normals in the clutch won't.
 
I believe that the gene responsible for the wobbling travels on the same chromosome as the spider gene.
So everytime a BP inherits the spider gene, he inherits the chromosome that bears it, including the gene that causes the wobbling.
 
I think that's the case too, Oren. I've also never seen a Spider die from a head wobble. I've seen some Spiders that were tweaked out of their mind, but he ate fine.
