phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
limbs/digits/tail
• digits on the front paws can be twisted, swollen, fused or missing
• the front legs are set at odd angles to the trunk, in a manner suggestive of flippers, and are usually shorter than normal
• the humerus is generally shorter than normal

skeleton
• the humerus is generally shorter than normal

behavior/neurological
• when raised by the tail homozygotes clasp their hindlegs together rather than splay them
• Due to the shortened, twisted front legs homozygotes have a slightly side-to-side gait

reproductive system

integument
• black bumps are found on the skin of the upper surface of the paws

hearing/vestibular/ear
N
• hearing was assessed by auditory brainsetm response is normal at 1, 3, and 5 months of age
