Both Albino and Blizzard are recessive color morphs. What this means, is that in order to appear different from a "Normal" they must receive the mutant gene(Albino/Blizzard gene) from both parents.



Now the Blizzard and Albino genes are not the same thing, so in order to get a Blazing Blizzard (aka Albino Blizzard)the offspring must receive one albino and one blizzard gene from each parent.



In the case that you proposed, Albino X Blizzard, all offspring would appear as normals, but would carry one copy of each mutant gene for both Blizzard and Albino. Then next step from there, would be to breed the double hets(het = having one copy, homo = two copies) back together, and you will have a 1/16 chance per egg of hatching out a visible Blazing Blizzard Lizard (Albino Blizzard).



Hope this helps,

Dan
