I saw an ad today, here on Kingsnake where someone was selling a female who was produced from breeding two different strains of albino. He put a huge price tag on her and hyped her up saying she was a "one of a kind double het" Now as a breeder of leopard geckos and snakes. I know one of the hugest no-no's is mixing albino strains together. Its called "Muddying the Water" and is very looked down upon by almost all breeders. Mainly cause if you breed this het female to one of those two strains of albino, your going to forever have a line of possible mixed albinos, never knowing which it is that's showing up in the offspring. It makes the genetics very complicated and confusing. In my opinion, ruining a project completely. What is your opinion on it guys?
