Almost half a year ago I bought a boa that I was told was a salmon boa and that its’ father was a salmon 100% het albino. Soon after buying him I got an email from the seller offering me the female he had also had and planned to breed him with. She is also a salmon/ hypo and I was told there was a 66% chance she would prove het for albino as well. She has more of an orange tail and less black markings on her lower tail section and they both have a reduced moustache. I was told she was born around February 2011, these animals are not from the same litter and the male is a bit older than she is.
I now have them set up in there respectable enclosures 6x2x2 and am wondering what would happen if I were to breed these two animals together, my understanding is that since they are both salmon/hypo that I will see some super salmons some regular salmons some regulars and possibly if they both prove het for albino some sun glows or albinos? Pictures will follow as soon as I fix my camera.

Well she needs another year first. Your male is only 50% het albino so you are fighting the odds for albinos.

If they are bother het albino the you will get salmons, super salmons and sunglows. If the odds are against you then you'll also get normals 66% het albino and albinos.
