Oops. I am a dope. I'm surprised that nobody pointed it out. Mark, if parthenogenesis occurred the baby(s) produced via parthenogenesis would be exact replicas of Mom. Clearly the Albino Super Jungle is not a clone of Mom regardless of the sex. So it's back to the drawing board. It does appear that at least one of the males that has been in with that female, must be a Het. That's the only logical explanation for where that Albino came from other than just a spontaneous freak of nature. That is certainly possible but parthenogenesis? no.
