Mack snow question

[steve905]

I have a pair of Manck snows I've raised from juvies. They both look like more spotted normals than anything else. If I breed them together will I get Super snows? They were'nt het for anything I was told.

If they are truely mack snows, you will have a 25 percent chance of each egg being supersnow.

Yep, Mack Snow x Mack Snow will give 25% Normal, 50% Mack Snow, and 25% Super Snow.

+1, however there is no guarantee you will get one but in theory you should get one in four. I have had a mack female who has never given more than 1 ss a season and another who gives like 75% ss.

The way that i like to describe it, is the quarter idea... say you take a gecko like a mack snow and breed it to a normal... 50% will be snow, and 50% will be normal. It's like flipping 2 quarters. They will either land on heads, or tails. But this does not mean that if you flip 2 quarters, one will always land on heads, and one will always land on tails. It simply means thats what the odds are and thats the only outcomes you can get out of it. Both might land on heads, both might land on tails, and they both may land on opposite sides. So like gecko odds, this does not mean that out of every 2 eggs laid, one will be a snow, and one will be normal. It's just saying thats the only outcomes it can be, but it is just how the dice is rolled.

So hopefully once I get get one or 2 Super snows for the season If theyare cooked for female and I breed them back to the father will my percentages got up next year? Is there a vivisble difference between a Super snow juvie and a Mack? Thanks

Cook one for either sex, breed back to eachother, and you get 100% supersnows.
However yes a super x mack give you better odds.

Super Snow x Mack Snow=

50% Mack Snow
50% Super Snow

Super Snow's have purple bodies with eclipse eyes when they hatch.
