Crazy Odds - Albino Pin Clutch

brookside Jul 06, 2010 10:41 PM

We've had our share of good/bad odds over the years but this is a first. The breeding was Pinstripe Het Albino x Het Albino. We hatched 1 Albino Pinstripe, 5 Albinos (2 are faded) and 1 poss Het Albino.

The Albino Pin is in the far right egg and appears to have been cooking slower than the others. For that reason, I only cut a small window to make sure it was ok.

Best of Luck,

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I appreciate it. I definitely spoke too soon concerning the "faded" ones in this clutch. They are indeed Albino Pinstripes. Easier to confirm now that they are starting to leave the egg. 3 Albino Pinstripes, 3 Albinos and 1 Het Albino is just insane from a Pin Het Albino x Het Albino breeding. I'm buying lottery tickets this weekend for sure
