I am new to breeding balls and was my wife is wanting to breed an male 100% het for pied and a normal female. Is there a good chance that this will produce a pied?

no chance, all the offspring will be possible hets.

damn that really sucks, so I am goona have to find a female het for pied as well?

Het X Het breeding will get you 50% normal, 25% Het and 25% Pied statistically. NO guarentee to get a Pied though.

You are absolutely correct, posting while doing 20 other things.

yep!

Statistically 50% of the offspring will be Het for Pied and 50% will be normal. All will look the same.

damn this is all so new and confusing to me, lol

the best advice i can give is to ask a lot of questions and study EVERYTHING you can. look at the matrix on ralph davis's site. it might help you.....

chris

thanks alot for the advice

morph x morph = 100% morph

het morph x het morph = 66% chance het for morph

het morph x normal = 50% chance het for morph

normal x normal = 100% normal

this guide refers to only recessives.

Genetices isn't that hard when you get to understand it. Practice with some Punnett squares and you'll get the hang of it.
