Eddy has laid her largest clutches this year so seems to be increasing in reproductivity but she is only 5.
Kevin also has a kink in his spine bless him, but luckily it doesn't effect his health whatsoever. He's one of my larger, chunkier snakes, and has a very sweet personality. When I let him out he usually takes himself back to his own enclosure too. I've also kept a few other snakes from that clutch, Eddy by far has the strongest personality!
I did a Punnett square to look at the probabilities of what colours were likely my snakes were able to produce.
Capital letter is a dominant trait and lower case is recessive
R/r represents red pigment and B/b represents black pigment
Benny (normal HET Amel): BbRr JD (Amel HET Anery): bbRr
All possibilities of JD and Benny's offspring
| BR | Br | bR | br

bR | BbRR | BbRr | bbRR | bbRr

Normal corn HET Amel/Poss-HET Anery = 6 (BbRR/ BbRr/ BbRR)
Amel corn Poss-HET Anery = 6 (bbRr/ bbRR)
Anery corn HET Amel = 2 (Bbrr)
Snow corn-(Homozygous-Amel+Homozygous-Anery) = 2 (bbrr)
So there's a 6/16 chance of the snakes producing a normal
6/16 chance of producing an Amel
2/16 chance of producing an anery
and 2/16 chance of producing a snow
