Technically yes but I prefer to list outcomes by Phenotype so:

hypo x dbl het. snow

50% = hypo(25% het albino, 25% het anery, 25% TH moonglow)
50% = Normal (25% het albino, 25% het anery, 25% DH snow)

IMO not a good pairing since you won't know wht you have except for the hypo gene

probley not because i would have to hold back every female hypo, and hope for the best

Exactly, possibles are a PITA, if ythey prove out, then GREAT but if they don't

And even then, while valuable to get the moonglow, a TH will mostly produce MORE possible hets unless bred to a snow
