Man, those unscrupulous breeders are really starting to tick me off. I got a pair of "high contrast het albino balls" in trade. Well, I raised them up and bred the male to two of our poss het albino females, as well as the female het albino. Well, as you can probably guess, neither of the poss hets proved out, and the female het laid two eggs, out of which came this monstrosity that is definately not a high contrast albino (picture below, scroll down)


OK, so I am really happy and not mad at all. I guess in a way it is a high contrast albino. Can't wait until he comes out all the way.
Very happy with these results!

I was hoping for a carmel albino, but the eyes are not really looking ruby colored. I guess I will know more once it is out of the egg.

Turns out my pair was double het for ghost and albino! A very nice surprise indeed. Hope everyone got my joke above.
