    Re: how do you figure out percentage

    visual ( aka albino) X Normal = 100 % hets
    100% het X 100% het = 66% hets
    100% het x Normal = 50% Hets


    those are the standards


    if you cant afford to take care of it, dont get it

    Its not "how much" het the animal is. It is the chance or possibility that it IS het. It either is or it is not. Nick's helpful post shows you the possibility of the offspring being het in each scenario.

    Also a 50%(or any %) het once proven (produced babies that are visible morph) are then considered 100%. Like stated previously the number shows possibilty of being a het(100%).

    Re: how do you figure out percentage

    ok so if i was to breed my normal, i dont know what % he is, to a female albino, then the offspring would be 100% het because both are recessive right? and if i was to breed my normal to a spider than 50% would be het?

    What did you buy it as normal or het..

    There is no het for spider it either is or isn't a spider.

    Re: how do you figure out percentage

    A normal is a normal. Hets come from selective breeding. Spiders are dominant so there is no het spiders. They either are or they are not. A spider to a normal gives you 50% chance per egg that you will get a spider.

    An albino(visible) to a normal will produce all normals that are 100% het for albino. Breed that het to an albino and you will have 50% chance per egg for visible albinos(normals will be 100% hets). Albino to albino makes all albinos.
