Guinea Pig Genetics

Guinea pig genetics are a little more confusing than rabbits, mostly due to the fact that you can crossbreed them. This page will be making them as basic as possible, however there will be more in depth guides for each gene.

Note that even though you can crossbreed guinea pigs, each breed still has its own standard.

Breed Genetics List
What genetics make what breed? Here is a master list! There are other variations but these are the main ones. This list does include breeds not available until after the revamp.

Current Breeds

L_ R_ Rx_ snsn stst T_ = Abyssininan Satin

L_ rr Rx_ Sn_ stst T_ = American

L_ rr Rx_ snsn stst T_ = American Satin

L_ R_ Rx_ Sn_ St_ ss T_ = American White Crested

L_ R_ Rx_ Sn_ St_ T_ = Crested

L_ R_ Rx_ snsn St_ T_ = Crested Satin (n/a)

ll R_ Rx_ Sn_ St_ T_ = Coronet

ll R_ Rx_ snsn St_ T_ = Coronet Satin (n/a)

ll R_ Rx_ Sn_ stst T_ = Peruvian

ll R_ Rx_ snsn stst T_ = Peruvian Satin (n/a)

ll rr Rx_ Sn_ stst T_ = Silkie

ll rr Rx_ snsn stst T_ = Silkie Satin (n/a)

L_ R_ Rx_ Sn_ St_ tt = Teddy

L_ R_ Rx_ snsn St_ tt = Teddy Satin (n/a)

Teddies may get more breeds due to them only requiring tt, but it is unknown at this time.
