When bred together (albino/blizzad double hets) what ratio could possibly be the blazing blizzards? I was always under the impression that when you breed two double hets together you'll get like 1:16 that are actually the morph you were trying to get. I think that I was given the wrong info.... I'll have roughly 6 pairs that I can breed back, IF all goes well with the incubating process... Please help me out.

Thanks
Richie

a ratio of 1:1000, eh, ahem well.... time to get started... heeh.. Soooo if one female can produce around 12-16 eggs a season, that means I'll only need oh, around 120 more double hets, to make up for the 60 more pairs that I'll be needing... Oh yeah, no problemo... (heeh, well there goes that notion)..

people have them, theyre just not saying they do.

GREAT 1:16 is much better. I figured that the 1:16 was correct but I had to make sure... 1:1000 seemed very, very far fetched, I was thinking "So, in order to get a SINGLE blazing blizzard I'd have to get rid of everything else".... That wasn't going to happen. So outta the 6 pairs I'll be breeding it wouldn't be too far fetched to say that I could easily have 2 - 3 blazings would it? Of course as long as it all goes the way I want it to

Thanks again,
Richie

the ratio is closer to the 1:1000. If it were 1:16 then we would have thousands of blazing blizzards. Take into considersation that many many breeders have been trying to produce this morph for years and yet to produce any. Blizzards and Albinos have been available since 1999 and since thent the only people able to produce blazing blizzards are Prehistoric Pets and it took them 4 years to produce a couple (and think about how many double hets they had). Serious breeders have been breeding for the blazing blizzard since then with only a few pairs of double hets and have yet to produce a single blazing. The blizzard and albino genes are very hard to combine just as the patternless and tremper albino genes are hard to combine. If your planning on attempting to produce blazing blizzards you should buy at least a 1.10 group of blizzards/albinos and produce your own double hets, then breed for the blazing blizzard and hopefully produce one. Your not going to get anywhere with 6 pairs, unless you get extremely lucky.

The ratio is unknown. We don't have enough blazing blizzards hatching to even give a number.

We don't know what genetic inheritance pattern the trait follows.

It may be that breeding existing blazing blizzards are the only way to reliably produce more, in which case we know who will have them, and in large numbers....

Great, thats all I needed to know, well at any rate, even if I dont get any blazings I think I should be able to get some normal blizzard and albino animals outta the mix, which isn't a bad thing either... As far as all the hets go, well I think maybe I'll keep a single male and incubate the rest for female... Who knows, maybe I'll get lucky.... Should be fun trying anyhow.... - Thanks to all of you that replied, I really do appreciate it. Oh and I finally got my email reply from Prehistoric Pets, and the Banana Blizzard is a cross between a patternless and Blizzard het breeding. Kinda interesting email if you ask me, so I'll go ahead and post if for everyone to check out...
