Breeding

Talking about breeding a pastel to 50%het normal what would we get in return just asking

What the heck is a 50% het normal? Just askin.

There is no such thing as a het normal! A Pastel to a normal would get you 50% pastels and 50% normals. If the normal was a 100% het of any recessive morph then all babies you be 50% hets but if you have a 50% het, you can't say the babies might be het because you don't even know if the 50% het parent carries the gene or not. I hope this answers your question!

In that case I believe it is 50% normals and 50% pastels all...and correct me if I'm wrong someone cause I'm bad at math...33% het hypo...which doesnt mean they have 33% of the hypo gene, it means that statistically 33% of the hatchlings would carry the hypo gene.

How can you call the babies anything other than normals when the sire or dam is a pos het themselves?

Pastels and Normals from that pairing... If it was het to het, then you might get something else, but in this case, just pastels & normals.

this should answer any future questions....

Normally it does but in this case it doesn't help at all.
There is no 50% het to choose so there is no answer from the wizard ;)

The 50% het hypo does not factor into the equation because it may not be a het at all! You need to breed the 50% het hypo to a 100% het hypo or a hypo to prove it out as a het! Since you don't know if the 50% het hypo has the hypo gene, all you can say is that the babies are pastels and normals.
