het albino X het albino, what did you get in your clutch?

[seeya205]

I know what the odds are but what did you actually get in your clutch when breeding het albinos together?

I've done two different breedings that turned out to be het albino X het albino. In each case it was 66% chance het male (also possible het for another gene) X 50% chance het female. The first time only two eggs went full term but both contained kinked albinos. With the 2nd pair I hatched 5 healthy babies but only 1 was albino. It’s possible some of my other possible het albino pairings where het X het and I missed producing an albino but I’ve generally tried enough to feel confident that a possible het female isn’t het albino before considering her a normal.

If both snakes are 100% het for albino, then the chances of getting an albino are 1/4, with the rest of the babies being 66% possible het for albino. You'd have to raise those babies up and breed em to prove em out.

I know the odds but I just wanted to see what people actually got!

Best I ever did was 50% twice. First time the female only gave me 2 eggs, hatched 1 albino. Second time, from a first time female she gave me 4 eggs and I got 2 albinos. This is why I don't really care about stated odds. Every clutch is different.

People don't understand that the odds are per egg, not per clutch! I won't be breeding mine until next year but I was curious of what people actually got!
