All normals het-hypo, and each one has a 50% chance of being het-bloodred. As Ssithsto said, there's some evidence that bloodred is co-dom, so you may be able to spot the ones that are het-bloodred. You would only get normals from that pairing though...

Normals het hypo and possibly het bloodred. In this pairing the normal het bloodred doesn`t carry a hypo gene, so no babies will be visually hypo.

Both parents have to carry the hypo gene to pass it on to offspring. Both parents have to have the bloodred gene to pass it onto offspring. If only one parent has the gene the best you will get are hets.

In a Hypo x Hypo Bloodred pairing the offspring will all be hypo as both parents carry the gene, they will only be het bloodred as only one parent carries it.
