If I breed my albino male red tail boa to a 100% het albino female red tail boa, what will the rusults be ? I'm under the impression half the babies will be albino, and the other half will be look normal, but will be 100% het for albino. Is this correct ?

The babies will have a 50% chance of being albino and a 50% chance of being het. Therefore, you should theoretically get a litter that is half het and half albino. However, these are only probabilities. You could get all hets or all albinos or any combination thereof.
