    Recessive genetics are as predictable as co-dom. Take for instance I bred a spider to an Albino because the Albino is a Homozygous animal every baby she produces will carry at minimum one copy of the albino gene. The only time a "normal" non-gene carrying animal is produced is with het to het breeding ..
