Yes, you are correct about the albino. She does not have exact locality data. I would presume they are from Iwakuni however there is no guarantee so obviusly I can't label them as such. And blood may have been mixed over generations. I do keep 2.2 pure kunishiri's who should be ready to breed this year (at 4 years old)



And the hets are from a female albino and Kunishiri male. So they don't have Island specific genes.



I've been trying to locate data on climacs to find out if albinos exist on other islands and if so, how many of the islands but the information is scarce?



I did notice that albinos seem to originate with Mark/Kim Bell stock. I'm sure they would have a wealth of information about this specie.



Terry, I'd love to see pictures of the moellendorffi. They are stunning animals



Cheers,

PS Dave, thanks for the brumation info. I think I'll be taking a few more of them out of the winter room this weekend ( :
