Albino or Cinny? I have an albino but want a cinny. An albino cinny doesnt seem to me like it would be too impressive, but the combos that a cinny can make, i think are out of this world...would you keep the albino and buy a cinny or trade the albino to get a cinny?

well if you like the cinny morph and it's combos more than you like the albino and it's combos than go for the cinny. However, long term it would probably be better to keep the albino and buy a cinny. Now as far as the albino cinny goes, I don't think one has been produced. But gulf coast reptiles has produced a few albino black pastels and they are super nice and they have a really good chance to make the albino super black this season which I bet will be very nice. While we don't have the cinny/black pastel morph in our collection yet, it won't be long before we add a few pairs to make some black pewters with.

Well, being that the albino is a favorite and also a more well-known morph than any other amoungst even the general population (not just breeders and collectors alike) , I think it would be a wise investment to keep it around to make some hets and albinos in the future. Along with the albino, I believe the cinny is another "must" in a collection, and makes some amazing crosses.

I would just buy the cinny and keep the albino.
