Ok, I have two hatchlings. The female is a amel. Her parents are an amel het anery and a bloodred. The male is a anery. His parents are an anery het amel and a snow. When I breed them, will I get just snows? Or will I get snows, anerys and amels?
 
The female is poss het anery. So in that cross you will get amels, normals, and poss snows depending on whether or not the female is het anery or not. So no guarantees of snows until the female is proven het for anery.
 
I just heard from the guy who sold me one of my snakes. He said that the male anery is het for snow. Will that change the outcome at all?
 
I just talked to the breeder of my girl and she is amel het for anery het for diffused. So If the male is anery het for amel het for anery (therefor snow) and the female is amel het for anery het for diffused what will I get? I tried the cornsnake predicter but I got really confused.
 
Snow is the phenotype when both amel and anery are expressed. So your male anery het for "snow" is really just anery het for amel. It can't be het for anery - it's already anery. Hope this helps.

What is a anerythristic amelanistic? Is that black albino?

Anerythristic Amelanistic is the genetic description of a Snow.

Now, from your description of what your animals are, and what their parents were:

Your female is homozygous Amel, 100% het Bloodred/diffuse, 50% poss het Anery (mom was only HET anery... and there's a 50% chance she didn't pass it on.)
Your male is homozygous Anery, 100% het amel.

So, ALL normal-coloured offspring from this pair will be 100% het for Amel and 100% het for Anery. They'll also be 50% het for bloodred/diffuse.

You have a 50% chance of producing animals that are visually Amel who are 100% het for Anery and 50% het for bloodred/diffuse.

If you produce even one snow or Anery, you know then that your female is 100% het for Anery - but until this happens, you won't know for sure if she's carrying Anery.

And if and only if your female is actually het for Anery (which you won't know until you breed her) you have a 50% chance of producing Anery-based morphs... which is when you get the 25/25/25/25 layout of normal hets, amel het anery, anery het amel and finally snow - and statistically half of these will be het for bloodred/diffuse.
