breeding question

[kc261]

no amel x anery for blizzards. how do you make them!

yeah but i didnt want to start a new thread for a stupid question that is probably easy to answer.

Ah. I understand what you were asking now. It really isn't a stupid question; pretty much everyone is confused by genetics until they get the hang of it.

Derek (Dr Del) already gave the basic answer. You can start with an amel and a charcoal, breed them and produce double hets. Grow them up, breed the double hets together, and each egg will have a 1 in 16 chance of being a blizzard.

You also mentioned starting with an albino (amel) het anery (in this case, it would need to be anery B, also called charcoal). If you were able to find a amel het charcoal and a charcoal het amel of the opposite sex, that pair could produce blizzards, and you'd have better odds too, 1 in 4 for each egg. You'd also get about 25% amel het charcoal, 25% charcoal het amel, and 25% normal appearing double hets. You could also use a matched pair of amel het charcoal (or charcoal het amel), which would still give you 25% chance for each egg to be blizzards, but the rest of the clutch would be amels 66% phet charcoal (or charcoals 66% phet amel).
