by breeding a normal female to a 100% het anery male, the litter would be normal looking babies that are 50% possible het for anery. In order to produce anerys, both parents have to carry the gene because it is a recessive gene, like albino.

Co-dominant simply means that by breeding a co-dom gene, such a motley. 50% of the litter would be motleys, the other 50% would be normal. I used motley as an example because it is different than hypo, which is dominant. But thats a conversation for another day because that goes in detail.

Hope this helps
