So I have this super snow that until recently was believed female.
We candle him,& seen a dark spot indicating male.
He does not appear to be any kind of albino.
I don't full know his genetics but I want to know he is to pretty
What traits should I breed him with to test him out?

I want to be sure he is what I think he is & if I sell offspring I want to label them all correctly
He was sold as just super snow. I want be sure he don't have any hets. I don't think he does I see no visual stuff except eclipse traits.

In order to tell if he has any hidden traits, you'd need to breed him to females possessing each trait you want to check. So you'd have to breed him to a Tremper albino and then see if you get any albinos, then to a blizzard to see if you get any blizzards . . . you get my drift (no pun intended). It may make more sense to just label the offspring as whatever they are and then "no known hets but can't definitively rule any out". Failing that, you could choose the most popoular het possibilities (in my opinion that would be Tremper albino, blizzard and patternless) and check for those through breeding.
