Male blizzard + Female blizzard=baby blizzards?

[texas_geckos]

I have a male blizzard and am looking at breeding to my female blizzard. They are both virgin white. I was wondering will i get all blizzards or something else. Any help will be awsome

All of the hatchlings will be blizzards.
There might be some degree of color difference between them, example one might be whiter than another.

thanks i was unsure about what i would get thank you
I don't get all the gene things yet. I also just hatched two eggs that came from a male blizzard and a female regular got both regulars will i ever get a blizzard from those

Your regulars are het for blizzard but you will not get any blizzards, only hets.

what does het mean? Does that mean if i breed a reg het for blizzard with a reg. i get no blizzard offsping is this right or wrong. If i breed reg het for blizzard with blizzard what will i get

Blizzard is a recessive gene. This means that it will only express itself when combined with another Blizzard. If you combine a Blizzard to another morph, the offspring will not express the Blizzard trait, but they will carry that gene. This means that the offspring will be "het" (heterozygous) for Blizzard.

If you breed a Blizzard to a het Blizzard, you will get 50% Blizzards and 50% het Blizzards.

Let's use the example of letters, it always helps to understand what the hatchlings will be. Imagine that AA represents a normal gecko. Aa represents a gecko aparently normal but carrying the blizzard gene (het). aa represents a blizzard. Then:

AA x AA = 100% AA
AA x Aa = 50% AA, 50% Aa (as you can't tell wich are heterocigous or not, they are considered 50% possible hets).
AA x aa = 100% Aa
Aa x Aa = 25% AA, 50% Aa, 25% aa (the normal looking hatlings are considered 66% possible hets).
Aa x aa = 50% Aa, 50% aa
aa x aa = 100% aa

Is the same for all recessive traits.

this has been really helpful in my understandings of genes. What is explained I get finelly. thanks for all the input am looking forward to meeting everyone here.
