DID YOU KNOW THAT TYPING LIKE THIS MAKES IT LOOK LIKE YOU ARE SCREAMING?


Okay, that aside: You won't be able to tell which hatchlings come from which father. If the hypo is the father, you'll get normals het hypo and amel. If the caramel het hypo amel is the father, you'll get normals het caramel, amel and possibly carrying a gene for hypo, or you'll get amels het caramel possibly carrying a gene for hypo. However, amel is an exceptionally common genetic trait in captive bred corn snakes, so your hypo might very well have amel as a het and could generate amel offspring het hypo.

So yeah. This is why generally people stick to *one* male for a pairing, or use males where the offspring CAN be told apart.

I like your sister already! Proper capitalization and punctuation will get you far in this world. Most people think that if you don't care to communicate with them correctly by using proper grammar, capitalization and punctuation, why should we care to communicate with you.

Oh, and nice snakes! Megan is correct, you will not be able to determine which snake is the father.
