"1) we've already seen it - it's the "chocolate sharp". What do you get when you mix pink and orange, you get brown!"





This is incorrect. When you mix pink and orange you get a pink/orange color. You need red/yellow/blue to make "brown". Since there's no "blue".... you can't make "brown". Not sure where the brown comes from in the Sharps, but I doubt it's from mixing the sharp and kahl strains.





"2) you'd never know it because they'd be indestinguishable from the visual form of one or the other."



I'm not sure if there would be a difference. There "might" be, but you'd have to do the breeding to find out.



The problem with doing the breeding is, you muddy the lines. You'd have boa out there carrying both strains of Albino. If someone got one as a sharp, but accidently bred it to a Kahl, you'd still get Albinos. This accidental breeding to a Kahl could result in Albino animals being mislabeled.



In the end, if you didn't get animals that clearly showed "differences".... You'd have to make the decision as to euthanize the DH's and Possible DH's for both strains or not. It would be almost "impossible" to prevent accidental breedings and mislabeling of future breedings/offspring. Unless you kept "ALL" the offspring from those breedings.



I'd still like to know what that 1/16 baby would look like, but I doubt it will ever happen.
