Hi all.
I am looking into breeding spotted pythons, in particular trying to breed the albino spotted python.
I understand that 'Het' means heterozygous and I also studied genes in biology at school but I still can't get my head around the %'s involved.
How does the %'s work and if I want to breed an albino (no one has 100% albino clutches as it is a recessive gene unless they have no dominant traits in the animal), are 100% Het Spotted Pythons more likely to breed an albino.
Can someone please explain all of this.
Cheers
Alex
