Also just to clear it up a little more. The reason they are called 50%, 66% and 100% het is because those are your chances of your snake being the recessive gene carrier, but ultimately you have to breed to find out whether your 50% and 66% hets actually carry the gene. Like the one person said though, “once you prove it carries the gene that means it is 100%.” The percentages do not reflect how many babies will come out with the visual recessive trait though. You could only statistically come out with 100% albinos, pieds, clowns etc. etc. buy breeding visual recessive trait to visual recessive trait. Hope I helped some.
