Thought I would share...

Got to love those rainy nights and a female at 107 days past P.O.S.

Mom: 100% Het Albino (now proven)
Dad: Hypo 100% Het Albino (now proven)

29 babies and 4 slugs

7 Albinos
10 Hypo's probable het albino
12 Normals probable het albino

congrats
i think you forgot one that sunglow bottom left.

Congratulations the babies will all be possible het Albino.

In the case of a recessive Het to Het breeding each non Homozygous baby
has a 2 out of 3 chance of being het Albino.

So they are all labeled as 66% possible hets.

By the way it appears that you have 1 or a few Sunglows in there

Sweet litter! congrats!

I am the first one to admit I am not a Boa Guy...I like the Ball Pythons but have three Boas..the Mother and Father of these babies and a Albino Female that will be ready next year that I am told by several she was ready this year.
First pic the Albino's and Sunglows?
Second Pic...some of my favorite ones that are not Albino... Love the funky patterns on the Hypo's in the pic and the others.

BTW...Boaphile...I never would have produced these without your article from Nov. 1996 "Revelations of THE BOAPHILE" article that I have read several times and used as my main source.

better pics would help, but it looks like 4 sunglows your finger is pointing at 1 and the 3 above.

looks like 5 sunglows to me, and 1 albino.

So what I should be looking for is the white ring around the tail spots to indicate albino according to the research I have been doing. Is that the easiest way to tell?

Once I learned what to look for it was easy to see..

Looks like I ended up with:

6 Sunglows
1 Albino
10 Hypos 66 Het Albino
12 normals 66 Het Albino
and a lot have a very abernant pattern..

Thank you all for your help and you comments..I truly appreciate it.
