Please can you help me figure out the punnett square for Bells Albino X normal het for Bells and Tremper. Could you possibly show the punnett square as well. Sorry, I am still battling with this.
Thanks.

25% Homozygous Bell,
25% Het. Tremper, Het. Bell,
25% Het. Tremper, Homozygous Bell,

If it's bell x normal het bell it would be 50/50-half bells and half normal het bell
If it's bell x double het then I think it is 25%
for bell x normal het tremper I think all would be normal double hets.

I would think you would end up with:

1/2 Bell Albinos 50% Heterozygous for Tremper Albino.

1/2 Normals 100% Heterozygous for Bell Albino and 50% Heterozygous for Tremper Albino.

That is IF the pairing was a Bell Albino x 100% Heterozygous for Bell Albino & Tremper Albino.

Michelle,

Try to learn how to use Genetics Wizard:

http://www.geneticswizard.com/f_start_genetics_wizard.asp

You have two recessive trails in your example, So on first page choose "2" for "Number of abnormal traits: ", then click "build query form"
On next page type "Bell Albino" for "Gene 1" and "Tremper Albino" for "Gene 2"

Let us assume that your male is Bell Albino and your female is Normal het for Tremper and Bell.
Male is homozygotous for Bell Albino and it does not carry any Tremper Albino gene - choose "Homozygous" for Bell Albino and "WT" for Tremper Albino.
Female is heterozygous for Bell Albino and heterozygous for Tremper Albino = choose "Het." for Bell Albino and "Het." for Tremper Albino.

Click "Ask the Wizard" and you should get results:

Homozygous Bell Albino,
x
Het. Bell Albino, Het. Tremper Albino,

25% Het. Bell Albino,
25% Het. Bell Albino, Het. Tremper Albino,
25% Homozygous Bell Albino,
25% Homozygous Bell Albino, Het. Tremper Albino,

In other way we can write:
50% Bell Albino possible 50% het. Tremper Albino
50% Normal het. Bell Albino possible 50% het. Tremper Albino

If you want to do it in Punnet Square you have to choose letters for Bell and for Tremper

For example:
BBTT - Normal
bbTT - Bell Albino
BBtt - Tremper Albino
BbTt - Normal het for Bell and het. for Tremper

PS will have 4 rows and 4 columns.
All rows will be described as "bT" and columns will be (1) BT, (2) Bt, (3) bT, (4) bt

x | BT | Bt | bT | bt
---------------------------------
bT | BbTT | BbTt | bbTT | bbTt
bT | BbTT | BbTt | bbTT | bbTt
bT | BbTT | BbTt | bbTT | bbTt
bT | BbTT | BbTt | bbTT | bbTt

BbTT - Normal het. Bell Albino
BbTt - Normal het. Bell Albino het. Tremper Albino
bbTT - Bell Albino
bbTt - Bell Albino het. Tremper Albino

I had tried it before but did not understand how to fill the forms in. Now that you explained it, it makes so much sense! Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it.
