This is a leatherback that I though might have some paradox. I was wondering what you guys think? Is this the key to the Albino?

Hi DJ, that spot on the back of the Italian Leatherbacks head is a small silky spot.
Is it possible to breed her to a male Italian Leatherback and produce a higher percentage of Silkies in the clutch?
Let us know!
Hope she is a fast grower for you. Ed
That is a beautiful set of animals. Did you produce them?
I have to ask. What is the paradox about them? They look like beautifully colorful leathers to me.
Putting them together will give 25% silkies.
Albino will come from a seperate gene. Generally albinism is a recessive trait and will not be seen in the animals carrying the gene (heterozygotes).
Nice photography too!
