I've heard a million conflicting stories on this subject and I would love to hear some opinions from the breeders here. On every site, people seem to be advertising that their dragons have this gene, but I've heard many other breeders say that it isn't possible anymore, or that the gene may be present but so diluted that it makes little genetic difference in the offspring. Is it size that really determines this (or can be used to verify it)?
I ask because the male we just got is 3 months and already 15" / 175 grams. His mother is 21" and over 600 grams, which is where we were told the GG gene comes from. I don't really care whether he is GG or not, since he's big and beautiful which is what we wanted, but I am curious about the GG gene and why so many say they have GG's but their dragons are no bigger than a normal sized one.
Sorry if these are stupid questions. I'm just confused :-\
