I don't know if it is possible to tell just by looking. If it is, I definitely don't know how. I'm guessing that you really can't know for sure.



The cheapest way for you to find out is to ask the store/breeder you got them from. If it was a pet store, there is a good chance that they will have no clue, but any breeder worth his/her salt should know these details.



If the source has no idea where they are from, the only way to tell (that I know of) is to breed them with other albinos and see which type of albino they produce albino babies with. That is time-consuming and probably very expensive, but probably the only way to know for sure. If you try this method, I'd probably start trying to breed with a Tremper, because they are the most popular. If the babies are "normal" looking, then you can always breed them back with the Tremper albino and you can produce albinos that way (because they will be het for tremper and het for another type of albino), but 100% of the babies won't be albinos.



If that doesn't make sense, just ask more questions
