    Re: 1.0 pied X 0.1 100% het pied????

    Pp or pP= both upper and lower case alleles (Pp or pP= heterozygous)

    100% het Pied x 100% het Pied

    50%= heterozygous (alleles are Pp or pP)
    25%= normal (alleles are PP)
    25%= Piebald (alleles are pp)
    Sure thats true for a het pied x het pied but if you read the post thats not what we are talking about. The OP asked about a Pied x a het pied.

    Side rant. People need to understand that a Pied is a Pied, a 100% het pied is just a het pied with someone throwing in the 100% for good measure and a 66% or 50% het pied is a fancy way of saying "not really sure what this is, could be normal could be het pied here are the odds" That was a little long to put in an ad for a snake so they went with 50% het pied and ever sense people have been disapointed when they found out there 50% het pied is really just a normal and on top of all that they have no one to blame but themselves for their disappointment.
