Not to burst your bubble or anything, but it really is a very bad idea. Yeah, I know it's been done successfully in the past. I know that it's the best way to get the "highest" number of Albinos in a litter. Unfortunately there's no such thing as, "an unrelated Albino". Yeah, I know people advertise they can offer "unrelated" pairs, but it's just not "possible". The Kahl Strain Albino is the most "inbred" gene out there. You need to try to diversify your bloodlines as much as possible. I don't know how many Kahl Strain Albinos, Hets, and Possible hets are out there. I do know that they are "all related". They can "all" be traced back to that Original Albino male that first produced them. In my opinion it's best to try to breed Albino to Het, or Het to Het. It's the best way to avoid deformities. That is, if the deformities in Albinos is actually genetic.

Anyway that's my 2 cents. You can actually breed what ever you'd like to. After all, they're your snakes.
