i have a 4' male 66%dh snow boa, that i wish i could find a mate to prove him out with. if i bred him to a 100% het for albino and got albinos, would he be 100% DH snow or 100% het for albino, 66%DH snow?

thanks,

chip

Well Chip, in all likelyhood, you have a normal looking baby from a DH Snow x DH Snow (or TH Moonglow) That baby would be 66% het Albino and 66% het Albino.

That animal bred to anything with albino genes and an albino is produced, then it is het albino, 66% het Anery. (100% is redundant and not necessary)
