I did not know that balls do this to. I always worry about that in my boas. Here’s an example one year I breed a het for albino to a het for albino, she did not take. The next year I breed an albino to the het for albino. And get babies. How do you know for sure that the sire of the litter was just the albino? What if the het for albino and the albino are both the sires of the litter from the female retaining sperm for the het from the following year, making all the normals in the litters 66% het for albino.
