Dayglows are in effect amels, although selectively bred, so if you breed your normal with another normal you would get all normal offspring.

you would have to breed your normal, which will be het for amel, with another normal het for amel and you would get a few amels from that clutch, but probably no dayglow's.

Any gene that is recessive (99% of Corn morph genes) will need both parents to carry it in order to have a chance of seeing it in the offspring.

I think its another name for a sunglow, which is a selectively bred amel that shows little to no white.

Not completely sure though.

Amels lack the black pigment whereas the Sunkissed the black pigment is reduced, so they are not similar.
