heres some pics of my snakes

my new 100% het albino corn snake,,hes beside one of my normals

Nice snakes! That corn snake with your normal is a homozygous amelanistic (aka albino) corn, not a heterozygous (het) albino. It is expressing amelanism, not just carrying the gene in het form.

Roy Munson,

Thanks.


One day, when people say the name
"Munson," they're gonna think "winner."

Just like DiMaggio is to baseball...

or "Unitas" is to football.

That's what "Munson" will be to bowling.

Ahhh... I thought poor Dean was confused on his name or had a spilt personality... LOL

[brandon0133]

is there a difference between albino and het albino?

[Roy Munson]

is there a difference between albino and het albino?

Yeah, there's a difference. A het albino would only be carrying the amelanism/albino gene. It wouldn't be expressing amel/albino. Your corn has red eyes, so you know that it is expressing amel/albino. It IS an amel/albino.

anything that's 100% something, generally is the something

[brandon0133]

i wonder why he said 100% het albino then,,,

[drache]

perhaps two different alleles for albinism?
I'm not that good with this genetic stuff . . .
