Some of you may remember, Lapis Lazuli, my slate
"bobtailed" gerbil. ( http://www.rodentfancy.com/myomorpha/gerblapi.shtml )
Although she lived with her father for quite soem
time, she never had any babies. He sadly died and I placed her with her
brother for company- and guess what, she had babies! two little
REWs. Very surprising since i assumed she was steril after all this
time. Too early to be positive, but I think its a girl and a boy.
Both have normal tails, but if this was an inheritable mutation, maybe they
carry it recessively. i know both dominant and recessive forms exist in
various species.
