I have not proven this theory for myself, (to be 100% sure) Please understand this is my reasoning here... but have studied many 66% hets and also 100% hets of which I do own in my own collection. I first thought there had to be a way to tell them appart....then I also read the info about Jeff Ronne saying that there were indeed notable markers to tell hets. I guess I should point out that I am talking about het albino normal looking boas.



To save myself emarressment as well, I will say that I believe I see a noticeable marker that is consistent through 3 different 100% hets from different breeders, and also see these same markers on some 66% hets.



I did show this to someone that was over, and he did not really see what I was talking about....so I really feel it has to be something you should learn for yourself. If you really try, you will find out...



If I am wrong, I would never want to steer anyone in a false direction and cause you to spend needless monies on my account, so I will just say, I see some markers, if you look into it you may see them as well. I would reccomend you purchase some 100% hets...that may help you out.



Sorry I cannot be of any more help on this...it just would be a dis-service to all of you. I hope you understand, Andy Federico
