Leopard geckos aren't the only thing I breed. I have hognose snakes as well as carpet pythons, ball pythons, redtail boas and kingsnakes.
I know that the different albino strains look different also. As I have both pink, orange and reds. I consider the orange and reds the same line, with just red introduced. There's a big difference between working with combo morphs and mixing albino strains. And you may be able to tell the difference when you look at a pure animal, but if you mix the lines it may make it difficult over time. Which is the concern I have and what has made mixing albino strains and anery strains so looked down upon by many breeders. I cant imagine how mixing these two would benefit any breeder at all. If anything it makes people concerned if what they are buying from that breeder is pure, or if it has some unknown muddying.
