>>So if I started with a double het male and bred it to my anery. That what would be my next step to get the ghosts. Also woudla ghost to ghost breeding produce all ghosts or what combination.
Instead of just asking about each combination, see if you can figure it out, then you'll be able to predict outcomes for all your pairings. You'll feel good about that. Check the genetic sections of one of the snake books (hypo, anery, and albino are each "simple recessive" or recessive mutations, so they all work the same way) or check out the genetic section at my website below. If you get lost somewhere in it, email me and i'll improve the site and answer your question. But you need to know that ghost x ghost IS going to give you all ghosts, and why, or you are very vulnerable to someone selling you something (not if you buy from shannon, of course) based on a false promise, or that's not going to give you what you expect.
good luck, see if you can answer your own question about what double het x anery would give you...you need to figure out two things: what does "het" x "homozygous" or in this case, het/anery x anery give you? and what does "het" x normal or in this case, het/hypo x "normal" -- normal re: hypomelanism, in that your anery has no hypo genes). Answer those two questions and you've pretty much answered the whole thing. I hope that helps.
