    I feel stupid having to ask this....

    I know alotttttt about breeding outcomes and such but recessives are always my weaker point. If I was to have

    0.1 hc albino
    1.0 vpi axanthic

    How would I achieve snows?

    I know together they would produce 100% normals that are 100% dh for snow (albinoxaxanthic)

    I just don't know where to go from there....?

    Thanks for helping me out on what I feel I should already know!

    You then raise those double hets up and breed them to each other for a 1 in 16 chance per egg of producing a snow.

    This!


    That's really the only way to do it. You could breed on of the dh back to mom or dad and hope that one of the visuals that will be 50% het turns out to be a het, but that's really the only other way to do it.

    Inbreeding is bad though, no?

    I always ASSumed breeding siblings was a bad idea.....but sometimes I wonder what the hell I know

    I wish you luck if this is one of the routes you're looking to go

    As long as you don't do it for too many generations it isn't that bad.

    Not really when it comes to snakes. There are a few morphs where inbreeding has ill effects, but with most ball pythons, so long as you don't overdo it, you're fine. Breeding siblings together, or parent to child, is usually fine.

    Inbreeding is what got us so many morphs! Most morphs came from one wild caught morph in Africa! You will not get any visuals with this pairing, just double hets! You will need to breed brother and sister together for Snows!
