How can you tell.....?

[ROACH]

Just a short question.

If you were to breed a Pastel Het Piebald with a Spider you can get this:

25%	1/4	Normal
25%	1/4	Spider
25%	1/4	Het. Piebald
25%	1/4	Spider Het. Piebald

Now my question is this:
If 25% is Spider and 25% is Spider Het. Piebald how can you tell wich ones are the Hets? Sames goes for the normals?

Visually there isn't any way to tell them apart. This is where the 66% and 50% het snakes come in. In this case each egg has a 50% chance of getting the het pied gene, but since you can't tell them apart from the non-het hatchlings they are all considered 50% het as they all have a 50% chance of carrying the gene.

Thank You, I guess that would make since!

You won't know. You just call them all 50% hets or pos hets. Although, sometimes morphs have a ringer if they are het pied, it doesn't guarantee that they are het pied, but there's a good chance. It will give you a better idea on what you should or shouldn't hold back.
