    It mean Heterozygous which is a genetic term describing an animal that posses the gene for a recessive gene, in this case Albino but does not show the trait (he looks normal)

    A 100% Het Albino is the result of Albino X Normal or Albino X Het Albino cross.

    The animal looks like a normal but 100% for sure carries the gene for albino, there are hets that are not 100% because neither parent was a visible albino. If one of the parents is a visible albino all of the babies will be 100% but if one or both parents are a het the babies are not 100% unless proven meaning bred and produced visible albino(s).
