hey guys i was just wondering what would i get if i cross a reverse okee with another morph say fire? or bloodred or even? would the hatchlings be normal and het for bloodred or normal okees het for bloodred since okees are different types of normals? what if i cross a reverse okee with another normal with hets?
pls advice thanks in advance!
 
Here are some sites that can help you answer these questions.

First, this site will let you see what breeding any 2 snakes will get you: http://www.corncalc.com/

But, it requires that you know, for instance, that an Okeetee is just a normal, which you already know. A reverse Okeetee is actually an amel. But some of the other morphs might be a little trickier, so this site can explain what each morph actually is: http://www.corncalc.com/
 
thanks for the website! but what i would really like to know is that if i mix okees and a normal would i get half normal and half okees or just okees or just normals since both are normals.
 
Okeetees and reverse Okeetees are selectively bred morphs, so combining them with anything other than more of the same selectively bred morph will produce mostly normally patterned corn snakes. You may get a couple that have the Okeetee look, but they will probably not be as good a quality as if you had not "diluted" the selection process. It will take a few generations of selective breeding to regain the ideal look.

And then, if you are talking about locality Okeetees, you MUST stick with locality snakes or lose that label.
 
oh i see how did morphs like butter okees came about? or lava okees? so they first cross a amel okee with a caramel and there after pick those that look like okees that carry the gene of amel and caramel and breed them together?
 
If you want lava okeetees, you breed a lava to an okeetee & get hopefully okeetee-looking babies that are het lava. Breed those to each other 3 years later & you get 3/4 hopefully okeetee-looking babies that are 66% het lava & 1/4 hopefully okeetee-looking lavas. Line breed the 1/4 to solidify the okeetee look thru several generations.

Edit: Making butter okeetees would be more complicated because you need to introduce amel & caramel genes & get babies that are butter AND have the thick borders & so on of the okeetee line.
