Hi I'm Augusto from Argentina. Here is my doubt.
I cross an Anerythristic whith another Anerythristic. All the offsprings were Anerythristic. But I made a second clutche whith the same Anerythristic female but with an Amelanistic male. I was expecting that all the offprings were F1 were normal (phenotype) but heterozygous for other genes. So in the future if I cross a pair of F1 would produce a snow corn. But there were 11 eggs and 8 were Anerythristic and only 3 Normal F1.
It's possible that the Amelanistic male father was heterozygous for Anerythristic??
Or It's possible that the female used sperm of both Anerythristic(the father of the first clutche) and Amelanistic (the father of the second clutche) for the second clutche??
THANKS

Both are possible. I don't know any way to tell which happened except to raise some of the anerythristic babies and mate them either together or to an amelanistic. If any snows or amelanistic appear, then the father was anerythristic, heterozygous amelanistic. Good luck.
