hypo or amel or what and bred to anery=

Hi all I was just wondering if this lil male corn is a hypomelanistic I thought I was getting amelonistic male whitch to my understanding would give me snow hatchlings if bred to my anerythristic female? If he is hypo the hatchlings would be ghost right?
So what morph is he and what would the two of them produce?? he has brown checkers on belly. am I even close?
thanks a bunch for ur time

If you breed a Amel to an Anery you will get all normals het for anery and amel unless one is het for the other. If you breed the Anery to a Hypo you also get normals het for hypo, anery.

thanks for the info so what is he?

Well, that depends on what you want to get. All of the interesting colors are homozygous, it's not like ball pythons where everything is co-dom & supers. So if you have an anery, you could breed it to an amel het anery & get normals & snows. You could breed your anery to another anery & get more aneries. And so on.

Your snake appears to be a hypo. The pupils are dark, so definitely not an amelanistic.

The vast majority of cornsnake genes are simple recessive. They need two copies to show a color or pattern other than "normal", and this means they have to get one of those copies from each parent.

A hypo bred to a normal produces all normals het for hypo, as they received only one copy of the hypo gene.
A hypo bred to a hypo produces all hypos, as they received two copies of the hypo gene, one from each parent.

Now, when you add in hets, the hidden genetics, then things get fun. For example:

If your hypo is het anery, and you breed it to an Anery, you'll get a mix of normals het anery and hypo, and aneries het hypo.

If your hypo is het anery and you breed it to an Anery het hypo, you'll get a mix of normals het anery and hypo, aneries het hypo, and ghosts, which are expressing hypo and anery at the same time.

Um, I see a very yellow snake so I am thinking caramel or butter??

I agree with Shiari, looks to be a hypo,

No matter how I play with my monitor I just do not see a hypo snake. I see a very orangey/brownish yellow snake. I wish I could get to another monitor My own photos appear very accurate to me. dern technology!

The neck is very orange, but the saddles on the middle of the snake are red, something you don't get with caramel.
