I was like wow I would love to take that shortcut to get 2 extra pieds and all hets. Dont want 1 pied and all hets and normals. If I cant find anyone its alright I have no promblem mating them. I plan on buying a extra pair of hets in oct. I love having them there so cute!!! cant wait till my girl gets mature enough to mate

Um...you could get all pieds from a het X het breeding... With the het breeding each egg has a 25% chance of being a homozygous (visual) animal. Each egg COULD be normal, het pied, or pied.... so you could get all normals (which would be pretty bad luck, or falsely labeled het parents), all hets (which will be normal appearing) or all pieds...or a mix of all.
But again, you would know that...

"Um...you could get all pieds from a het X het breeding"..
umm no you cant. what kind of golden chances is that? Ill have a better chance of winning 5 billion dollars then getting all visuals from het n het. The chances are slim when bredding het n het. But if you breed visual n het the chances of getting atleast one pied will be more towards your favor.
Wait hold up!!! first of all out of all this talk about getting homozygous. I still have to prove the 100% het is what the breeder said she was. Then we can talk..lol..But I have a strong feeling she is.

Once you have some experience with genetics, you'll realize that things aren't as absolute as you believe them to be.

Actually no you don't. If you got that 100% het from a reputable breeder you don't have to "prove" it. Proving a 100% het indicates a less than 100% certainty that the stated genetics are actually what they were said to be IMHO.
Re: My Two new babies(Het Pieds)
Aren't the odds exactly the same when breeding two 100% hets as with breeding one 100% het to a visible animal?

And you could also get ALL normal looking hets from a Pied x Het breeding ;)
Those odds are just that, odds! Not rules ;)

Either you trust your breeder or you don't. 100% het means that it doesn't need "proving out", it means that there's 100% chance that it carries the gene.
So, it sounds like you don't trust who you got them from? Didn't he provide you with the guarantee of genetics?

What? What about the 90 day quarantine that the breeder should insist on doing with any new animal that comes into his collection? I wouldn't be doing a breeding loan with anyone who didn't at least insist on that.

I said this 1 out of 4 have chances of being visual. What the other member was saying was that if you get two hets you can get all visuals and I said thats impossible
