>You Will get 50% sunglow het snow, and 50% albino het snow. you will not get a snowglow from a trip het to a sunglow. you will get albino 50% poss het snow, poss super sunglow 50% poss het snow, poss super dh sunglow 50% poss het snow, het albino 50% poss het snow.

The next thing is to ask what is the object of the cross.

There would not be any snows from either snake mated to a sunglow. Unless the sunglow was also heterozygous for anerythristic, which cannot be counted on.

If the object is to maximize return, I would mate the snow to the sunglow. The result of that mating would be either sunglows or albinos. On the other hand, statistically 1/8 of the babies from the sunglow x triple heterozygote would look normal despite being heterozygous for albino and possibly heterozygous for anerythristic (aka het snow).

If the object is to get the most variation among the babies, then I would mate the sunglow to the triple heterozygote.

Good luck.
