Just a couple of ideas. With Snow being Amelanistic and Anerythristic, I would go for one of these :

Snow x Snow = 100% Snow

Snow x Amelanistic = 100% Amelanistics het for Anerythristic

Snow x Anerythristic = 100% Anerythristics het for Amelanistic

Or for a bit of variety:

Snow x Normal het for Amelanistic and Anerythristic = 1/4 Snows, 1/4 Amelanistics, 1/4 Anerythristics and 1/4 Normals


Unless your corns have any hets that is.....

In order to get really good Okeetees, you need to breed a good Okeetee to another good Okeetee. It's a selectively bred trait, and your snow probably won't "contribute" much other than producing "het for snow" normals.

If you get a normal that carries the two ingredients for snow (Amel and Anery) then you could breed that to your snow and produce some normals, some Anery, some Amel and some Snow.

I've actually got a male who is possible het for snow (66% possible) that I've been looking for a female snow to test against...

yeah but if you don't know what morphs are what, if we know what colour you are aiming for we can help you to decide what to breed her with, without it getting too confusing

Ok.

If you like the visual look of a Ghost, Butter or Candy Cane, you're probably best BUYING one - you won't produce any of those from your snow unless you're very lucky and she's carrying Caramel or Hypo (which isn't that likely).

If you got a Ghost male and bred it to your Snow female, you'd get Anery (black and grey) babies who carry Amel and Hypo (so the BABIES could produce ghosts, snows or Coral Snows).

If you got a Butter male and bred it to your Snow female, you'd get Amelanistic (Orange and red with red eyes) babies who carry Anery and Caramel (So the babies could produce Butters, Snows and Xanthic Snows)

If you got a Candy Cane male and bred it to your Snow female, you'd get Amelanistic (orange and red with red eyes) babies, who carry Anery - and some of them might be candy-cane like.

And if you got an Okeetee male and bred it to your snow female, you'd get SOME normals, and you might get surprised if your male is carrying the ingredients for Snow
