    Het Albino/WT

    I'm thinking of getting a Het Albino ball python. It's the wild/normal type het for albino. If I get another normal/wild type and breed it with the one I have what possible morph combination would there be?

    Unless the second animal is a het albino you will only get 50% het albino at best meaning that each baby will have 50% chance of being het for albino

    I get that, but would the babies be all normal or is there any chance of having a albino babies?

    This answered you question but here is a better explanation. A 100% het albino with a normal will yield you a clutch or normal looking babies with every baby having a 50% chance at being het for albino. If you bred the same 100% het albino animal to another 100% het animal, statistically you could have some albinos and they normal looking animals would have a 66% chance of being het for albino.

    I hope this helps you out a bit better.

    Thanks

    A 100% het albino breed to a normal will give you ALL normal looking babies. Each baby would have a 50% chance at carrying the albino gene though but you won't know which ones have it since they will all look normal.
