They are all Kahl strain, but so are Argentine X Colombian albinos that Pete himself produces. I am useing these here as an example. He said that although the Argentine Albinos have "coraling" they are NOT corals. He said how in the past people bought the cross albinos and resold them to people as the genetic Corals.

Coral albino is a genetic trait within a (better to say) bloodline of his albinos, evidently one of the animals originally used to get hets added this.

Everything I have said here I have recieved from Peter Kahl. In regards to his strain of albinos, Corals, and the line genetics. Nothing here is assumtion on my part.

The person who posted the picture says it was NOT a coral, because he understands this. Useing corals doesn't gurantee corals, as you said coral hets doesn't gurantee anything. but useing non coral bloodlines won't give you corals. If it was a coral don't you think he would say so!

The "linebred genetics" I have been referring to is much like the stripe line. We all know how the bloodline gives us prettier albinos with more defined color in their pattern, even with generations of seperation from the stripe gene and no longer carrying the ressesive allele, the "strain" influences phenotype!
