I have a female charcoal corn snake whose parents were a motley and either a ghost or a blizzard. If I mate her with a reverse okeetee ( I do not know the parents). What could I expect the offspring to look like?

One last question which corn snakes do I need to have them make a candy cane?

Probably all normals, unless the Okeetee is also het for charcoal or motley ...or possibly amel if the parent was the blizzard AND the Okeete turns out to be het amel, too. ...or if they are both het for some unknown other trait.

Realistically, the only way to get a candycane is to breed two candycanes together. Candycanes are selectively bred albino corns that have been line bred since the '70's with Miami phase corns and light colored creamsicles (among other things) to get the look that you see today. Outcrossing them almost always increases the orange in the background to the point where you can't call them candycanes.

It's like asking" what do you need to breed together to get a poodle? Two poodles.
