Picked up our babies this weekend.

The first, a female, is from an amel x normal. Now the baby looks like an amel (no black whatsoever) so this has to mean that the normal father MUST have been het for amel, right??. otherwise she would definitely have black?

The second,a male, is from a snow x hypo okeetee. It has black, with little dots of of orange between black saddles with hints of red in the middle of them (sorry, no digital camera). What are his possibilities for morph and hets?

Thanks
Tina
 
You are correct. If your cornsnake has no black and has red eyes, it's an amel, and the father was het for amelanism.

Your other snake is a normal, and may or may not appear to be an okeetee phase as an adult. He is het for amelanism, anerythrism, and hypomelanism. Since some hypo okeetees are actually hypo B (sunkissed) okeetees, it's impossible to know without breeding trials which form of hypomelanism your snake is het for.

If you bred your two snakes together once they were old enough, you'd hatch out amels and normals.

What if?

Thanks Kat,
Now if we were to breed him with a snow, we could get a mix of normals, amels, snows, anerys....help? Is this where i try and download that computer program I hear about?
Tina
 
You're right again. Breeding him with a snow would yield normals, anerys, amels, and a few snows.

Another good pairing would be with a ghost corn, which would give you normals, anerys, hypos, and a few ghosts.

And the progeny predictor would help you figure out what else you could do, but I don't happen to have the link with me right now.

The progeny program

is a great help. Here is the link to it.

You will also have to download the VBRUN300.DLL file. The thing you have to remember is you have to download this file INTO the progeny file after you open the progeny file - then you download this file into it and open it in the progeny file. The corn snake program will not work if the VBRUN file is opened anywhere else in the computer.

Hope this helps you.
Good luck.
