Thank you for the pictures !

I never believed in chimera, and these things... Never been proved in any species (as far as I know) and too complicated to happen so often. Other than it would be "cool", there is nothing to back it up I think.

What I believe is that Paradox (at least in the albinos) is a multi-recessive phenomen.

What I believe and what the picture and description try to explain IMO, there is at least one more gene involved, but there could be way more than that.

So the female that laid the eggs, is an albino but there is another gene involved that change it's appearance to look more "normalish". Meaning, when you breed it to an albino, you actually breed an albino to an albino "combo". So all the babies are at least albinos, but some might even have the combo gene(s).

Well, that's at least my opinion.
