Project Help/Question

Once again, this is in regards to my female Willow (Normal het Motley, Anery, 66% amel). It was suggested that I breed Willow to a Snow Motley as the best possible male, as it would test out the amel gene.

While playing with the Corn Calculator (http://www.corncalc.com/) I hit on a possible fun project that I could do. If the Snow Motley Male that I bought was het for Lavender and I bought a Anery Lavender Motley female (I wanted an Anery Lav anyways) that was het for Amel, I could turn these three snakes into a fun Snopal project.

While the Snow Motley het. Lavender and the Anery Lavender het Amel would naturally produce Snopals, I think Willow might also be able to help the Snopal project get off the ground. As the father would pass on the Amel gene automatically, 50% of the babies would either have or be het for the three necessary traits (amel, anery, and lavender). Once these were tested out, they could be added to the Snopal project to help avoid inbreeding.

Here is my question-Am I missing anything, or is there anything I can do to make this better? Thanks!
 
Get a het motley het stripe (aka motley het stripe). That way you'll not only get motleys, but also a few stripes thrown in for good measure!

You could also add one of the hypo genes and caramel as well (lavender amber Sunkissed stripe...yummy!)
 
Just be cautious in knowing that playing with anery and lavender in the same project may lead to confusion later on in identifying the babies. It can sometimes be hard to descriminate between anery, lavender, and anery lavender...when combined with other traits moreso.

I agree on this . You can have light and dark lavenders as well as on the aneries .
To be sure what genes are in the hatchlings , you should do tetsbreedings to prove them(IMO)
