What is a dunner?

This dragon is a new dominate morph proved out this year. This is the only dominate morph produced in the last 2 years.

instead of white bands around tail the white pattern run up an down in dashes.

beard scales run up instead of down.

scales on belly run left to right instead of down.

Scales on dragons top and tail base are conical.

This morph may produce a "super co-dominate" no one has bred a dunner to a dunner.

This one was being sold through bloodbank dragons for 1500 and was marked sold

Paradox
This is the only photo i could find of a Paradox being sold by Alph Dragon Z. Not sure if this is the true pattern of the morph.

Witblits: I got this info from Witblits Dragons page. Selling them from 2500 to 5000 a baby.

The name
Witblits bearded dragons was born.

Witblits (Afrikaans: wit = white, blits = lightning) is a locally produced spirit with a very high alcohol content. Known as ‘aqua vitae’ or ‘drink of the gods’ in ancient Greece. As the name implies, it is potent! It is normally a transparent whitish colour.

These dragons are just like witblits; they are the ‘dragons of the gods’ and will also take your breath away…

We chose the name Witblits because our first patternless dragon (Blits) was almost blizzard white in colour! He took my breath away...

Are all Witblits dragons white in colour?

No. When Witblits beardies hatch the are ash-grey in colour. Within a week or so they change colour and most of them turn a pearl-white colour. Others remain grey but acquire a silver tinge as they grow. They mature as silver dragons. Some of the pearl-white babies become a golden-yellow colour as they mature. We only have one paper white dragon. His name is Blits. Pure white Witblits dragons are extremely rare! One of our projects are to breed blizzard white patternless bearded dragons.

Breeding males have the potential to turn their beards black. The contrast of a stark white dragons with a pitch black beard is amazing!

Are all Witblits dragons patternless?

Yes. Witblits beardies hatch completely patternless. They have no pattern at all.

Normal bearded dragons have a dark coloured sub-orbital stripe, running from the eye to the ear. They also have black shoulder pads. A lot of so called patternless dragons (like marketed leucistics) still have faint markings on them, especially the sub-orbital stripe and shoulders.

Witblits beardies have no markings!

Are adult witblits dragons patternless?

Yes. Witblits bearded dragons stay patternless. None of our adult dragons have any sign of pattern. They hatch patternless and remain patternless through life.

Where did you acquire the animals that produced these Witblits babies?

We have been working on a ‘light line’ of dragons for 6 years. It all started off with a very light coloured female called Savanah. We did some selective breeding. The result was Witblits babies in the 5th generation. We never expected it though. It was a combination of selection and a lot of luck… The parent animals of the Witblits babies are phenotypically normal. They might well be related. See original breeding pairfor more info.

What bloodline did you use to produce them?

We basically started of with normal dragons from no specific bloodline. We chose light animals to breed with and so created a line of dargons, our ‘light line’. We didn't use any “special” morphs to create Witblits patternless bearded dragons. The ‘parent stock’ are normal dragons with a lighter than average colour. Some of the very light animals could almost be called marketed leucistics or ‘dark-nailed hypos’, although none of these were used in Witblits dragons.

What is the genetics of these dragons?

Witblits is a simple recessive trait.

Previous breedings from the original pair constantly hatched around 25% patternless dragons. Pairing Blits (patternless) with Kahlua (100% het.) resulted in half the offspring being patternles. This proves that Witblits is a simple recessive gene

Silverback: Couldn't find much info on it other than its a proven recessive gene.
