    Het means heterozygous, it doesn't mean 'carrier of a recessive gene'. It just means 'carrier of a single mutant gene, and a single normal gene'. It doesn't matter whether that gene is recessive, incomplete dominant, or dominant.

    I Know that...but, itīs been used to name any morph/normal with a recessive gene on it for all 100% of the others morph until HRA. You dont say I have a het pastel, or a het YB, you do say normal het albino, and you also dont call albino an homozygous albino, just albino.
    Thatīs why a pointed out that even when itīs accurate, itīs not a normal use of the ball language...
