What will you get if you breed a male <b>Orange Banded Tremper Albino 66% het Patternless</b> to a female <b>Las Vegas Albino</b>? Thanks a bunch!!

um Normal right? Las Vegas is not compatible with Tremper. Don't know about the orange gene though.

You won't get any albinos, as the 2 strains of albino are incompatible...
If your Tremper is actually het for patternless, you would get triple hets (Het for Tremper Albino, Patternless & Rainwater Albino)..
And if it's not het for patternless, you would get double hets (Het for Tremper, & het for Rainwater)...
Due to the orange gene, some babies might lean a bit towards being a tang, but likely not.
Hope that helps :)

you will get double hets, 33% het for patternless.
Hum ! something confuses me here...
When something is 66% HET it doesn't mean it's got 66% of the genes in is body, it mean he's got 66% chance af having 100% of the genes.
So how could a 66% het create a 33% HET. The individual IS or IS NOT HET.. The 66% is only is chances to be.. He as 33 % chances of not being.
So in order to predict what genes is offsprings will have, we need to know if he is or is not HET in the first place.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

You will get babies that are 100% het for both strains of albino and 33% post het for patternless.

WYZ...
when you take two albinos that are not compatible, breed them together, you get normal looking geckos that are double hets.
One of the parents are 66% poss het for patt. you breed that to a gecko that has no patt genentics, you get half of the chance of producing it then. Which is 33%.
So the offspring would be normal looking, double hets for both albino, 33% poss het patternless.
ah ! Ok I understand your equation now :)
I just wanted to make the precision that if the 66% het, is in fact simply not an het, then the offspring won't be hat at all. I wanted to make that point because I often read in forums some people thinking that a 50%HET was still good because it had half of the genes in him. Nobody had told them that it was an odd, rather then a content.
We meant the same thing but looked at it from a different view.
