>>I say I "proved" the pale one to be a hybino because test-breeding is a matter of degree: I bred him X two hypo females and got 16 babies, ALL of which are hypos. I THINK the odds of that happening by chance (if he were only a het) are around 1 in 60,000, like throwing heads on a coin 16 times in a row (Shasheena, are you reading this? can you set us straight on the odds?)







Your odds or even better than 1/60,000. Its more like 1/65,573. This, statistically atleast, is so damn significant that you can sure say it is a hybino.



Cheers,
