Most snake morphs are reccessive, needing a matched pair of genes, one from the mother & one from the father to show the phenotype. One having that matched set would be called homozygous, or homo. One carrying one normal gene & one, say anery gene, would look normal, but it would be possible for that snake to have offspring that show the phenotype, if it is bred to a homo snake or another snake carrying a normal & anery gene. Having the two different genes is called heterozygous, but is mostly shortened to hetero or just het. So I have two corn snakes that are homo charcoal & homo hypo, making them phantoms, but they are also possibly het for amel. If that makes sense.
