I am currently breeding my male Bell Enigma to my APTOR females since I have nothing else to breed with them at the moment. I know the babies will be hets for both strains as well as patternless, I was just wonding what would happen if I did hit the odds and BOTH got strains of albino present whan I breed the babies together. Just a thought

0.1 Pied
0.2 possible het pied
1.0 Albino
0.1 Albino het female
1.0 Spider
1.0 cinnamon
1.1 Pastel
1.0 Het genetic stripes
0.17 normal females

I asked this same question about a year ago but it involved all three strains of albino. The answer was how can you tell which is which? It'd be nice to have "one" universal albino gene present but how could you tell?

I'll use this to plug my favorite albino

and this is what she looked like when I got her

Pastel 1.0
Spider 1.0
Normals 1.2
Het Pied 1.0
Leopard Geckos 1.1
American Bulldog 1.0

I personally asked Ron Tremper the same thing. He said that each albino strain is impossible to distinguish from each other with a naked eye.....you would have to use breeding.

So, by breeding and producing all strains from a triple-strained albino..........it would still be uncertain as to whether the strains were recessive or in the actual phenotype.
