I NEED TO TAKE BETTER PICS AS MY CAMERA ISNT TO GOOD, BUT THE FOLLOWING PICS ARE OF GHOST AND A HYBINO GHOST

THESE BABIES DIED IN THE EGG..I WAS REALLY UPSET... A HYBINO AND A GHOST, OH IAM CALLING THE ALBINO A HYBINO GHOST CAUSE THE ADULT THAT PRODUCED THEM WERE REALLY HYPO BY REALLY HYPO I MEAN THEY HAD REALLING GLOWING BROWN AND THE WHITE PATTERN IS A BLUE GRAY, AND EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW THAT WHEN YOU BREED HYPOS HET ALBINO, ANY ALBINOS PRODUCED FROM THAT PAIRING WOULD YIELD HYBINO..

THIS ONE HAS A REALLY NICE ZIGZAG PATTERN GOING DOWN THE BACK IT ONLY HAS TWO BREAKS IN THE ZIGZAG REALLY NICE.

HERE ANOTHER SHOT OF ZIGZAG

First, I would like to see a full pic of the albino, as it does not appear to be different from what little we see. Also the TRUE APPEARANCE will be AFTER the first shed...NOT out of the egg.

Second is your definition of "hypo". There are numerous different strains of hypomelanism in cal kings. I can identify about 6. Is Ghost a form of hypomelanism? I would say yes. I would also say that "hybinos" already exists. If I were you I would not be too quick to proclaim to have produced the first "hybino".

Please post a clear full body shot of the albino.

Thanks

Last year I bred my Albino High White male to my Ghost (het albino) female. Produced 7 babies, 5 were albino. The 5 albinos are 100% het for Ghost and the other 2 are 100% double hets (albino & Ghost).

As you can see by the "straight out-of-the-egg" picture before they shed that the albinos look like a "ALBINO GHOSTS", but in fact are not.

By the way, all 7 babies developed orange on their bellies as time went on. The orange was not there even after the first shed. Definitely something different.

I've posted these before.

Interesting.

Kerby...

This is a Mendota Cal King straight out of the egg pic.

Looks different.

Kerby...

Mendota cal king after shed.

BIG DIFFERENCE!

Every year ON THIS FORUM, people post pics of pre-shed cal kings and state that they have produced a new morph!

I'm not saying that you didn't, but I would like to see clear pics of your "hybino" before we proclaim that accomplishment.

Kerby...

those are good pics my camera doesnt takes such good pics of albinos, my friend is coming over with his camera to take some pics, but sadly that albino died in the egg. and the one that is alive came out the egg early and his embrylical cord dryed out cause he was moving around alot and he pulled out his yolk and i think some of his intestines i was goign to freeze it, but iam giving it a chance to see if it lives, but i still got 3 eggs that didnt pop there heads yet. so hopfully one more egg is a albino and ill be able to hold on to it and grow it some.. ill post pics of my adults like that youll see how hypo my adults are and hopfully everything goes good with the surviving albino ghost... hopfully..
