Bingo! :) Shortest time to prove out all of your other poss het girls that you've saved up from the previous breedings.

The only way you get a 100% Het is if one of the parents is a Homozygous animal.
In the previous example... if you wound up with a male Spider Albino (after all those tries, and all that breeding), then when you breed that male back to the "poss het" females, all of the offspring would then either be Spider Albinos or Spiders 100% Het Albinos or Albinos or 100% Het Albinos.
Re: Genetically speaking?
Breed them to a homo... :)
Re: Genetically speaking?
so skip the het parent and go with a homo for the best result?,
also if breeding a homo to a normal, that would produce the 100% het or the 50% het?
thanks for the learning, lol

homo to normal gives you 100% hets.

Re: Genetically speaking?
All of 'em.... homo to normal will give you ALL 100% hets for the homo gene.
