    Question Het albino x spider?

    If I put a het albino female with a spider male, what are my chances of getting a spider albino ball python? Thanks

    In this case there is no chance of getting an albino spider. The albino trait is recessive so it would take a het albino and a spider het albino to even have a chance at hitting the albino spider. You will end up with spiders pos het albino and pos het albinos with that pairing.

    None. You would get:

    50% - Normal 50% het albino
    50% - Spider 50% het albino

    You would need both parents to carry the albino gene to get a visual albino.

    Het albino x spider?

    You could possibly luck out and get an albino spider. If they DO actually carry the albino gene

    100% het albino to 100% het albino gives you 25% visible albinos.


    be aware that 66% possible hets slash down the chances significantly, until you hit your first visible albino. 100% het albino to 66% possible het albino gives just a 17% chance.

    and 66% possible het albino to 66% possible het albino leaves an 11% chance to hit an albino.

    proven hets and 100% hets are really better. the step from 66% to 100%, or managing to prove out a possible het, that really makes a difference.

    The odds would be zero unless both prove out to actually be 100% het albinos.

    100% het X 100% het gives you 1 in 4 chance PER EGG of making an albino
