Which is similiar to pastel boas. Generally the better the coral albino the better the offspring will be in regards to coral... and there also will be more coral offspring. Pete has bred coral x coral and got all corals, which is what can happen with polygenic traits. The same thing would happen if you bred two nice pastels together.

So you can get corals from a coral x regular albino breeding. How many and how nice depends on the quality of the coral.

One example off the top of my head I can give is Tom Burke's Coral Arabesque Albino this year (Coral Alb x Ara het Alb). The offsprings color was so obviously influenced by the coral. CE has one and has posted excellent pictures... its color is insane!
