>>that the following are homozygous conditions:

>>Caramel//Caramel

>>Sharp//Sharp

>>Caramel//Sharp

>>

>>Heterozygous conditions being:

>>Caramel//WT

>>Sharp//WT

>>

>>So if the snake has one Sharp and one Caramel, it is a form of homozygous state. I don't know if this makes sense now.



By definition het is having two different genes, so:

caramel || sharp albino would be het



Problem comes in how to say it correctly since most of us (myself included) are so used to the two choice per gene pair game. Het always before meant one morph gene paired with one normal one. Now there are more choices
