A snow corn is a double reccessive combination of Amelanism and Anerythism type A. If you combine those two morphs, in the first generation you will get hets for both (unless one of the parents is het already) and then by breeding the het offspring you should end up with about an even distribution of amels, anerys, and snows. Of course, the best way to produce snows straight out is to get two snow corns of breedable age. That way you're pretty much guaranteed 100% snows from the first clutch. Takes longer to start from scratch, but some people find it more fulfilling.
