double homozygus ressesive, How do most do it?
I was wondering how most people get em. I get that you start with a DH. But do you breed a DH to DH or do you breed a single Homozygus to the DH and hold back all the homozygus or.......
1.1 Het Albino Ball 1.0 Spider
1.0 Mojave Ball 0.1 Pinstripe
0.1 Honey Bee 0.2 Normal
1.0 Caramel 0.1 Mojave het Caramel

Well I'm by no means a genetic expert but DH x DH only gives you a very slim chance at hitting the double homozygous. If possible it would be best to breed a homozygous het x homozygous het. For example if you are trying to achieve an albino pied, breeding an albino het pied to a pied het albino ups your odds to 25% chance per egg.

I haven't done it yet myself, but I'd breed the double hets to each other. You'll have a 6.25% chance per egg of getting the double homo.
Breeding a dh to a visual you'd get some visuals 50% het for the other. That would mean a lot of hold backs to try to prove them out.
No matter how you do it, it's a long term project I think!

This is probably the best way, but a lot more expensive to start out I think. (I try to do stuff in the least expensive way!)

Well in a perfect world you could breed double homo to double homo (i.e. Albino pied x albino pied) but that sorta defeats the purpose lol. However if you can swing it you then get 100% albino pied. Wouldn't that be nice! Lol

Homozygous A X Homozygous B = Double Hets
Hold back a male DH and a few female DH raise them up and than do DH X DH and cross your fingers because it is a 1/16 chance to hatch a Double Homozygous
Chances per egg of course.

Re: double homozygus ressesive, How do most do it?
I start out with possible double het males to normals. I'll let you know how it goes in another 10 or 15 years, lol. Seriously, where is the fun in paying for a known shot at only 1 in 16 odds per egg when you could go with a cheap Hail Mary and decades of anticipation ?

Because im one of thoes people that like to control as much as I can. The less I leave to chance the better. Besides the question was more aimed for personal knowledge then a plan to attempt. Besides in 10-15 years the prices will have dropped so much that I could afford to just buy one. Look at the albinos
