Macroscopic pictures of ventral hind limbs and skeletal hind limbs of Rr29Hx/Shh+ , Rr29Hx/Rr29Hx, Hm/+, Hm/Hm, and Hm/+ Rr29Hx/Shh+ mice

limbs/digits/tail
• detectable by E14.5 (J:43743)
• webbing between digits 2,3,4, and 5 extends to the nails in the hindfeet; to the base of the distal phalanx in the forefeet (J:43743)
• webbing is extensive and prevents toe elongation, resulting in severe flexion at birth (J:43743)
• complete webbing with normal tibia (J:68687)

skeleton
• detectable by E14.5 (J:43743)
