As a general rule of thumb, from that breeding you'll get 1/4 albino and 1/2 hets and 1/4 normal. Since you can't visually tell the difference between a het and a normal 2/3 of the normal looking animals would be hets, therefore each of them have a 66% chance of being hets.
When you breed het to normal you'll get a 50/50 ratio of hets to normal, thus 50%. |

The % is what chance they have of actually being het.
The only way to tell is to breed them to a known het or to an albino.

|  | Subscriber | | | | | Whoa... alot of very misleading info in this thread so far.
The mating of a het albino to a normal will produce 50% het albino offspring (ie half of the young produced on average will be het albino).
The big problem arises in the fact that you cannot tell which half of the offspring are hets and which are normals (without test breeding to an albino), this makes the entire clutch "possible het albino".

| Hetty, references to animals being 66% het and 50% hets is in my opinion misleading, an animal is either het or not simple as that. The question asked was what would be produced from the mating in which you were completely correct in your first post referring to what % of the young would be het (if that's what you meant), it became misleading when ppl refered to the individuals % chance of being a het rather than the % outcome from the mating referrred to.
