Thomi Gills (inky clouds) Baby you didn't have the morph for is a Spotnose Lesser Cryptic, poss VPI, she won in our last auction. I'm sure you will be getting the shed soon to test for that VPI!

Something that I dont think that has been said regarding genetic testing is the ethical side of it. Testing animals reduces the need for Possible to Possible breeding. Having more precision parings helps produce more desirable animals that are more likely to sell instead of "genetically inferior animals" that end up as pets which let's face it aren't treated as well as high end morphs and are sadly most likely to suffer from poor husbandry which could result in death.
