Hi Terry;
Thanks for your response and the reason I was asking about breeding a Nelson Albino to a Tangerine Hypo is that the Tangerine Hypo pair that I have is offspring from one of your line of double het hybino males and a female Tangerine Hypo, making them 50% het for Albino. If one of the Tangerine Hypos actually is a het for Albino but not the other one then I will never know which is which if I breed them together and that is where the Nelson Albinos come in. If I would breed the Nelson Albino pair to the Tangerine Hypo pair (the male Nelson Albino to the Female Tangerine Hypo, and the female Nelson Albino to the male Tangerine Hypo) and an Albino is produced from that, then I would know which one of the Tangerine Hypos is het for Albino in case one of the of them is (or both of them). So it would be a test breeding and I was wondering if Nelson Albinos and Tangerine Hypos would be compatible to breed together for this reason. If no Albinos are produced this way then the offspring would be hybrid het for Albinos, like you said, "Tangerine Hypo X Nelson" 100% het Albino and 100% het Hypo? Not sure what an Albino would be called, Albino "Tangerine X Nelson" 100% het Hypo?
Genetics sure is interesting!
