Yep, it should have said ph if it was less than 100%

im still going with should. Could leaves open any possibility. They could all be het, they all could not be.

Should is most likely, not saying it has to manifest. It should, since that's the most likely outcome. Thats my take on it.

but yea to the OP, as said above, if it was pos het, it should of said pos het with a %.

If it is het, it is het, no % needed.

I like to think of it this way: In a Het x Normal pairing, each baby has a 50% chance of being a het. In a Het x Het pairing, each baby has a 66% chance of being a het.

I think that every time a breeder or seller or whoever posts an animal as "50% het" or "66% het" or what have you without including the words "possible" or "chance" (or even the letter "P!!") they should be fined fifty cents per infarction by the Accuracy Police. They can donate the money to the reptile-related cause of their choosing.

:rolleyes::P

That confuses new people so bloody much! :rage:

Haha, awesome! Thanks folks :) I was just thinking about it and decided to ask.
