Also can apply to dominant traits and if so does not have to be homozygous for the dominant trait. For example a Sunglow bred to a het Albino would produce.....
Sunglows
Albinos
Visual Hypo's that are also het Albino (DH Sunglow)
Visual normals that are het Albino.
And to split one little hair....
"Both parents were homozygous for different traits"
is not 100% correct. In the Snow example you can get some DH Snow's from breeding a Snow to any animal that is not visually Albino or Anery. (Normal, Het Albino, Het Anery or even a DH Snow)
In its most simple form, Double Het DH means the animal is het for two different traits, sometimes recessive, sometimes not, and sometimes that combination of traits has another name like Snow = Anery and Albino or Sunglow = Hypo and Albino
