	Heterozygous Heterozygous - the animal carries the gene for a genetic trait but does not outwardly demonstrate the trait. Example: A boa that is het for albino looks normal but carries the albino gene. When it is bred to another het for albino boa or an albino boa, a percentage of the offspring will be albino.

Also, have you tried the place you got the pair of hets from? Maybe they keep records and can make you copies?

I actually value the word and reputation of the person that I am dealing with far more than I do any paperwork.

As a hobby, we are too caught up on having paperwork for hets. Paperwork is easily forged. Let's say, for instance that person A buys a pair of hets from Pete Kahl. Being a reputable breeder, Pete provides documentation for that pair of snakes. Person A, also just happened to have a litter of normal boas that were just born. Thinking he can make a quick buck, he simply makes copies of the paperwork that he received from Pete, and then places an ad for 1 pair of baby het boas. Each pair of normals that he sells is represented as being the pair of hets. After all, it will be a few years before anyone figure out that they were scammed, and by then they will more than likely have lost their contact info for person A.

Dealing with hets is a game of trust. Anyways, that's just my little rant.
