What might I produce if I bred a 100% het albino female to a 100% het pied male?
Thanks for the reply's!

25% Het. albino,
25% Het. pie,
25% Het. pie, Het. albino
hope this helps I am sure someone will give you a little more info but this would be the % on average, but you never know what the actual % will be unless you prove the babies out and see.

If you go to morphkingreptiles.com they have a nice little genetics wizard that handles all these questions. And I believe ralph davis has the actually "cubes" formula for figuring it out on his site.
Basic morph genetics though:
unless a morph gene is a dom or co-dom gene, you need to breed 2 animals carrying that gene in order to get a visible morph. Hets=normals that carry that morph. so het alb x het pied = poss het albs, poss het pieds, and poss het alb & pieds. where as het alb x het alb = 75% of the clutch are 66% poss het, 25% albino...statistically speaking of course. It gets quite confusing when you get into double hets like alb & pied, but keep workin at it and you'll figure it out.
