The offspring would be wild-type coloured Ratsnakes - Het. for both mutations, Albino & Leucistic. Wouldn't really matter if they were for Texas or Blacks. The adult colouration (& pattern) would probably vary a bit but they normally do anyways unless you breed specific locality aniamls together. Even then, there is a good chance @ variation. I have bred Leucistics into the Lic. Sticks (aka White-sideds) and have Dbl. Hets. that should produce Leucistics, Licorice Stcks & wild-type coloured animals in the same litter this summer. The Brindle trait is a seperate mutation that does not have anything to do with either of the other two mutaions unless it is bred into them. The Rusty Black Ratsnake is a trait that seems to be linked to the Leucistics. Kinda like a co-dominant trait that signifies an animal ois Het. Leucistic.
