Burm Genetics need help
I have a Male Albino Burmese and a friend has a Female Albino Burmese which is HET for Green and Granite. If breed together if I am right we will get Albinos HET for Green and Granites right? Then if we bred a baby back to the parents say one who shows the jigsaw or so what will the babys be?
Im really bad with Genetics for Burms I am new to the Burm Morphs

Depending on the allele, I'm guessing the genetics will be the same. Albinism is still recessive, you have the chance for albinos.
I don't know the exact percentages, but I think that if they are 100% Het for Green and Granite, then the babies will be either Albino or Normal with a 66% chance of being het for Green and Granite.
Am I right?

If percentages fell exact you would get-
25% albino
25% albino het green
25% albino het granite
25% albino het green & granite

You will produce all Albinos that will be 50% possible Double Het Green & Granite.

If I breed some of the babys back to the parents what would I get?

Re: Burm Genetics need help
First off, coldbloodaddict got it right.
Second, don't be inbreeding your snakes.
Take a baby with the puzzle pattern and breed it to another granite with albino or het for albino.
Then you'll get your albino granites.

Re: Burm Genetics need help
I was told you can breed kids back to parents just not to do brothers and sisters unless you do it only once

Re: Burm Genetics need help
their right when you inerbreed with parnts or siblings your snake could come out with head twitches kinks or other birth defects ,, dont get me wrong i know people that do it but its a toss up on the subject,,,, i know that alot of people dont want to buy an inbreed snake
If you want something you have never had, you will have to do something you have never done

Re: Burm Genetics need help
With most morphs you usually have to inbreed in the beginning to get the morph but after that you can introduce some new blood into your project and keep going. When you keep inbreeding you can get birth defects. I cant remember where but I believe I read somewhere that most granite burmese pythons and labyrinth burmese pythons were almost all related to one another.

Re: Burm Genetics need help
I can't remark on the Labyrinth line, but I can on the granite line(s).
Bob Clark acquired some granites.
Another line was started by myself when I discovered the "Puzzle" pattern to be a co-dominant trait. These lines are compatible, but from very different origins...
