Re: What does 100% het pied 50% het albino mean?
It means you would create a wild-type looking clutch of eggs. The recessive genes (in this case, albino and pied) HAVE to match in both parents (whether they have 1 copy of that gene or 2) for any chance at producing those genes in a way you can see them.
This is an odd idea, but maybe it will help explain recessive genetics: Your car has 2 cupholders, and when both are full with a soda, your roof rack lights up for everyone to see. You could only have 1 soda in your cupholder, or no sodas in your cup holders, but then your roof rack would light up. The windows of the car are tinted, so from the outside, no one can tell how many sodas are in the cup holders, UNLESS the roof rack is lit up. Then you KNOW there are 2 sodas inside the car.
When 2 cars meet up (think-breed,) in this example 2 cars meeting will produce 1 baby car with tinted windows, a roof rack and 2 cup holders, just like each parent. If the parent cars have lit roof racks they will DEFINITELY each give one soda to the created baby car. And if both parents give a soda, both the 2 cupholders in the baby car will be filled, lighting up the baby car's roof rack.
If the parent cars only have 1 soda each, *maybe* they will give a soda each to the baby car, *maybe* they won't. The car flips a coin to decide whether to give up the soda.
See how the chances of the baby car having a lit roof rack are getting smaller? Both parent cars are flipping coins to *maybe* give up a soda. And that's where dealing with breeding baby cars with no lit up roof racks gets tricky. Because of there tinted windows, you can only breed them to find out how many sodas they have inside. Did either parent car win the coin toss and give up a soda? Only a lit roof rack baby car would prove it.
On the case of albino (Coke) and pied (Pepsi), think of being brand specific about the soda to light the roof rack. Pepsi and Coke in the cup holders? No lit roof rack, the sodas don't match.
I hope this helps somebody somewhere, even if it is obscure...
