albino balls

cobra93 Aug 16, 2008 07:58 PM

I reciently hatched a clutch of albino balls. It was the efforts of a albino male and a het female. The five egg clutch turned up 2.2 albinos and .1 het. Three of the four of the albinos have a differnt color yellow on the crown of their head with something that looks like the arms of sunglasses going behind the back of the jaw line. The het has a spot that is quite distinte on the top of its head. Could this be unique or not? Question? Does anybody have pics. of albinos with the the yellow crown mark going behind the jaw line connected? Thank you for all your input and help. I tried to take pics of them but the light washed out the color on the albino. I'll get the pics. some how.

I have seen the connected stripe or crown in albinos before tho they don't seem occur as frequent as normals and some other morphs. The dot on the het does seem to be rather common in het albinos.

Congrats on the clutch -- got picts?

I too hatched my first Albino clutch this year and was not expecting the color on the head to be as orange as they were but never the less here is what I think you mean.
