Hi Frank -

Of course, one never knows what is actually going on in BoaLand, but I beleive the answer to be NO.

But I do know that there is a guy out there (I forget his name) doing just this ... Kahl Albino x Sharp Albino

... if they are truly incompatible as the SINGLE orignal "test" breeding indicated years ago (and I believe the orignal pairing included at least 1 parent being a Het), then you would expect to get DHets for each strain (no albinos) ... this outcome would convince me that they are truly incompatible (I have always questioned this myself, but this would make me a believer).

As far as breeding the DHets back together would be interesting just to see if all the experts out there can tell a Kahl from a Sharp when they come from the same parents.

In my opinion the 2 strains are of equal value and always have been ... only the market hype and manufactured perceptions has created somewhat of a pricing variance ... although we are all entitled to our opinions.

I would hope that there are other breeders out there doing the Kahl Albino x Sharp Albino breeding. It is these types of scenarios that make the hobby interesting and fun ... just as much fun as created a new morph ... and probably more rewarding for the true hobbyst.

I hope my reply does not create too much criticism because I do not have any time on my hands or time to defend my comments ... nor do I intend do.

Wow, just to think that I could have simply answered "NO".

Till Next Time ... Bill
