Welcome to the forum.
I think that you would get Anery and Normals from your Anery female with Avalanche male. Not sure with your crimson maybe just Normals?

Welcome to the forum Amana! This is a great forum with lots of experienced owners happy to give their advice and support. You also get lots of fun and friendship  . I am afraid I know nothing about corn breeding and morphs and I am not sure how much information you already know about corn snake keeping, so sorry if I am repeating information you already know...but it is better heard twice than not at all.
The forum provides great information. The best place to look is http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/corn_snake_care_sheet.htm, it has lots of information for new snake owners. Also read this topic on 'Your 1st Snake' http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4133
I am not sure whether you are co-habiting your corns at the moment. If you are then I would advise you to read this link as it can be very dangerous, especially with hatchlings - http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7508&SearchTerms=co-habiting
One thing I do know about breeding is the rule of 3 - the female MUST be 3 years old, over 300g and 3ft before it is healthy for her to breed.
I am not sure how long you have had your corns but one thing that is important is The one-week rule...no handling or feeding for the first week to allow them to get over the stress of the move and for them to get used to the new smells and their new surroundings. This means just putting your hand in to change the water daily and straighten the substrate, so they can get used to your smell and not be threatened by you. You are rarely advised this in a lot of pet shops  but it is an important way of getting your snakes to de-stress and feel safe with you. It is a hard week, very frustrating, but worth it for the snake's sake. If you have already had them for longer than this but didnt do it, it may be worthwhile doing it now.
Unfortunately, many pet shops cannot be trusted with what they are telling you  . I suggest you double check anything you have been told with us on here. Remember that no question is regarded as a silly question  .....it is much better asked and answered, you will probably find others who want the info too! First place to look is in the top right hand corner of the screen where there is a search button...type in what you are worried about and see if you can find an answer. I know you can get swamped with different topics including what you are searching for, so it is a bit daunting but worth a look. If you cant find the answer you are looking for then dont hesitate to ask!
When you got your snakes I hope you got as much info about them as possible....shedding history, feeding history etc. I keep my own 'Snake Diaries', noting things like weight, length, feeding dates and what you feed, shedding dates, health problems. I know it seems a bit over the top but it is actually really helpful keeping track of your snake's health - I even note when Kellog and Silvesta poo  !!
Unwritten forum rule - pics as soon as possible! This link will help - http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=14
A warning - corn snakes are addictive.....and yes, the majority of us have stood up, said "hello my name is **** and I am addicted to corns........! And I am proud of it!" You have just started down that, have 3 already and are already thinking of breeding, so I think you are well down that corn path!!
