You trust the breeder, or you prove them out yourself by breeding them to produce visual morphs.

You wouldn't unless you proved it out by breeding it.

You don't know! When buying an animal as a HET I would always suggest that you buy from a reputable breeder.
You may see the terminologies 33% 50% 66% HET floating around. These are the percentages that the animal you have may be a HET depending on the parents that were paired to produce the clutch your animal came from. At the end of the day your animal is either a HET or it isn't and the only way to tell is to breed it and try and prove it out. The only time you will get a 100% HET is if either the male or female is a VISUAL recessive animal.
