    That would be a het albino het ghost X a het albino. So that'd be:
    1/4 normal
    2/4 het albino
    1/4 albino
    (Odds per egg)
    All 50% het ghost...

    I did that in my head so I may be wrong.

    I could be wrong but I would think it would be

    hypo (co-dom) het albino (simple recessive) x het albino (simple recessive)

    1/8 normal

    1/4 het albino

    1/8 albino

    1/8 hypo

    1/4 hypo het albino

    1/8 sunglow

    Sounds right to me. So a bunch of possible hets. In the boa world basically normals. I know I wouldn't spend any extra on possible hets. Females take to long to mature. Maybe if it was something super rare and expensive I might take a gamble on em. But probably not.

    This is incorrect because the hypo RTB is a co-dominate morph not recessive like in BP's

    Also in the RTB world a ghost is an anery x hypo, the terms aren't interchangeable.

    Hey Aaron,, this is totally unrelated but good to see you on the RTB forum. Are you getting any closer to getting one?

    My apologies for the semi thread hijack.

    Well I have the space for one now, but I'm too picky. I really want a moonglow, but they are hard to find. I don't think I really want to get into breeding at this point so I want to get something really impressive from the start.

    I think this heat wave is cooking my brain. This ^^^ of course is correct. The whole double het statement threw me a little lol. You can't have a "double het sunglow." Either the animal is hypo het albino or it's....

    I forgot you like the morphs. There's gotta be something out there for you.

    I'm glad you are all settled in. I'm going to have to look at the moon glow boas to see what you fancy.

    Yep aaron's right. I forget that hypo is a codom gene in boas!

    I think this has already been answered, more or less, but may have gotten a bit muddled, lol, so I'll sum it up.

    This is incorrect. The hypo gene in boas is different from BPs. For a boa to be a ghost, the anery gene is involved. A dh sunglow and a het albino with no anery in there will not produce ghosts.

    This is correct. You will get normals and hypos both 66% het for albino, and albinos and sunglows in the litter. :gj:
