How Mack Snow is inherited
Mack Snow is co-dominant: one copy produces a visual Mack Snow, and two copies produce the Super Snow. Breeding a Mack Snow to a normal gives about 50% Mack Snow babies.

Mack Snow is allelic with TUG Snow: they sit at the same spot on the chromosome, so an animal can carry at most two of them, and pairing them produces combination morphs.
