    Het Pied x Het Pied

    Outcome Percentages:
    25% will be Normal
    50% will be Het Pied
    25% will be Pied

    Het Pied and Normal are identical so take these 3 together 2 hets, 1 normal.

    1/3 will be Normal
    2/3 will be Het Pied

    2/3=.6666~

    So 66% chance that these normals will be Het Pied.

    Het Pied x Pied

    Outcome Percentages:
    50% will be Pied
    50% will be Het Pied

    Thus 50% will be 100% Het Pied (not possible het, but strait het).

    Oh, and because you paired her to two different snakes, you take the lower percentage and use that. Because you cant tell which of the Hets came from which parent.

    Depending on who the daddy is you either have a 100% Het Pied (that would be if the pied sired the clutch) or a 66% Het pied (that would be if the Mojave Het pied sired the clutch) since you do not know who sired the clutch the animal should be sold (if you sell it) as 66% Poss Het Pied.

    Oh, and any Mojaves in the clutch would definitely be 66%, however the normals you have no idea about.

    Sell them, if you do, as 66, but you can tell the buyer the pairing, think of it as an added bonus for any buyers.
