Sometime later this week or early next week my pair of Het Patternless Rainwaters will be here. Of course they will just be cared for and fattened up until probably next year, but am I correct that once paired they will produce 25% patternless offspring?? If I remember my biology right, and boy has it been a few years, out of 4 hatchlings I will have 25% normal, 50% het and 25% patternless, right?

If they are PA's then
6.25%
Normal
12.5%

0.1 Albino Leopard gecko (Lex)
0.0.1 ball python (felix)
1.1 feral cats (Fuzzy, and Bear; it used to be fuzzy, wuzzy, bear)

Guess its a good thing I was building my rack system to house the babies of all my leos until they were 6 months or more, LOL

Jeff

your chances of getting a patternless albino is 1:16
about 50% will be normal appearing and some will carry the patt,albino and pattalbino but because you can not visibly tell which carries what they will be possible het patternless albinos
you should get basically 20% albinos and 20% patternless possible het again for the other strain..

ok go to the link.. it's much helpful LOL
remember the geneotype is its exact genetic make up and the phenotype is the visible characteristics
