Yes there is a risk that you could have a litter of babies with problems, But then again ther is ALWAYS that risk. I have one with an underbite as well, not as obvious nas yours but still, a bit of one. Came from Pete Kahl and at the time his opinion was it should not be a problem. I do plan on breeding mine.

So, breed her if you like, BUT, you should make extra sure your male is as unrelated as you can get. Yeah, I know they are all related but a nice strong outcrossed male from a albino to non-albino would be perfect. And pay close attention to any babies to see if there are any problems including but lkimited to the underbite you know of, eye problems and other jaw/head irregularities. If she does throw less than perfect babies, then stop breeding her.
