Something my friend asked me about, so I figured I'd ask the more experienced people here.

If you bred an Albino Reverse Okeetee corn with a Albino Bloodred, what would be the odds of an Albino Reverse Okeetee Bloodred being born? And what would that snake possibly be worth?
 
Reverse Okeetee, a selectively bred amel corn X "Fire", an amel bloodred corn = amels het bloodred. The amels may or may not look like the "reverse Okeetee, as it is selectively bred for that specific look, but they will be amels. If you bred the kids to each other any egg that hatches would have a 1 in 4 chance of being an amel bloodred, one bred back to the parent amel bloodred ups the odd to 50/50 each egg. If you breed the ones together that look most like the reverse okeetee you increase your chances that the babies will also look like reverse okeetees, but all of them will be amels, amels possibly het bloodreds and/or amel bloodreds. :)
 
Unless the Reverse Okeetee carries the Bloodred (aka Diffused) gene, there is no way to produce blood babies from that snake ... no matter what it is bred to.
If you breed it to a blood morph, the progeny will be het Blood (will not be Bloods but will carry the gene). Breed the resulting progeny to either another het Blood, or to a Blood, and you can get Blood babies (a percentage of them) in the clutch.
