Greetings Burmese Lovers,



I have a few questions regarding the genetics of my baby Burmese which hatched out over Father's Day weekend.



Here is the scenario:



The father is a Labyrinth phenotype; mother is an Albino Granite phenotype.



Approximately half the babies are normal phenotype with the other half being albino phenotype.



Question #1 - Can I assume that the father is a Labyrinth het Albino?



Question #2 - Would all the normals would be triple hets for Albino, Labyrinth & Granite?



Question #3 - Would the Albinos be double hets for Labyrinth and Granite?



Question #4 - Breeding two triple hets together will produce Albinos, Labyrinths, Granites and combinations of the three?



Question #5 - Breeding two Albino double hets together will produce Albino Labyrinths and Albino Granites?



Thanks to all for helping me figure out this genetic puzzle!
