Snow to snow will yield all SNOW, however it is NOT recomended as most snows are very weak and since they have not been outbred enough will most likely have a high mortality rate. Allthough you could get lucky!
And Sunglow to Sunglow gives you all sunglow. (Poss Dom)

Sunglow is a combination of albino and salmon (AKA hypo). Albino is recessive to normal, and salmon is dominant to normal. Note: the salmon and albino genes occupy different locations in the genome, and the normal version of the salmon mutant gene is NOT the same gene as the normal version of the albino mutant gene.
Sunglow x sunglow produces all sunglow if one or both parent snakes have a pair of salmon mutant genes.
Sunglow x sunglow produces 3/4 sunglow and 1/4 albino (statistically) if both parent snakes have a salmon mutant gene paired with a normal gene.
