I think that some hets might have "signs" but you cant be 100% sure that just because a snake looks a little different that it is a het.



Some het pieds have a double black stripe down the belly. I have a poss het pied male that has produced more than 20 babies with this trait. But he is still a poss het and his offspring are still unproven. The het pied female that I have looks like a plain old normal. Some have it some dont. Because of this you cant really rely on signs to pick out hets. The only true visual hets are pastels they are het for super pastel lol. Same for yellow bellies and fires.......



All snakes have "genetic" traits. Certain normals produce babies that are carbon copies of the parents. So if you have a light het albino male he might produce light poss het babies but it doesnt mean that all the light babies are het albino.



It is cool to see signs. I have many hets and poss hets that are killer animals but I also have normals that are just as good looking.



Hope this helps
