ok I just picked up a male 66% Possible Het Axanthic possible double het snow
and
a female 50% Possible Het Axanthic possible double het snow

I know there is a chance i will only get normals but thats the chance we take getting PH's

What I want to know is what can this pairing possibly throw?

Stupidity should be Painful!

To many combos.......with possible dbl hets there are to many combos of what they can be.

possible hets, albinos, axanthics, snows, albino possible het axanthic, axanthic possible het albino.

Percentages like 50%(one parent was het)and 66%(both parents were het)only refers to their lineage.
The animal is either het or it is not.Only breeding will tell.

If you get an albino...
Then they were both 100% heterogenous for albino after all.

If you get an axanthic...
Then they were both 100% heterogenous for axanthic after all.

If you get a snow...
Then you are one lucky guy.
That would mean that they were both double hets AND you beat the 1 in 16 odds as well.

Best of luck to you.

The male was was from a dh x axanthic? If so your male should be:

33% het axanthic
33% dh snow
16% het albino
16% normal

might be better to breed it to a 50% or 100% het albino or albino...

Sounds to me like they both came from the same het axanthic/ph-albino father.With different mothers.

Basically, you are looking at some possibly maternal inheritance patterns, if so, look back on the parentals, as those phenotypes (characteristics) will most likely be expressed. But really, you are asking a question of very broad scope. The bottom line is that even if you narrow down the genotype (actual genes) of the parents of one snake, you still have the other 50% genetic contribution from the other snake to account for which will result in over twice the amount of possible outcomes. (haha i just wrote a genetics exam like an hour ago... hope this sorta makes sense)
