Genetic Question

[frogman]

So have close to 300 eggs from a golden albino female and a wild type male. When I bred the female with a gfp melanoid male I got 1/2 golden albino and 1/2 wildtype and 1/2 GFP overall. So she is probably not het for melanoid. His parents were a multi het albino and a multi het wild type male. They produced golden albino, albino, wild type, leucistic, and melanoid. I have had a few answers but would like an overall. Thanks to any help

As the female is not a melanoid carrier you will not get any melanoids. Because the male is wild type there will be wild types in the brood and because his mother was albino half the brood should be albino variants. The mix will depend on what recessives are present. It is not possible to predict accurately exactly what will emerge because both could be leucistic carriers.

If both parents are not carriers of other recessives than albino expect half golden albino, half wild type.

Try making a bunch of punnet squares like I did here:
