Albino motley x motley should give you motleys normals and super motleys het albino.

Albino motley x albino will give you albinos and albino motleys

Just my opinion but those two combinations are not good!

A Homozygous Albino to a Homozygous Albino increases risks for deformed babies, Albino to Albino is a no no.

Another bad idea is to breed a Motley to a Motley. Super Motleys do not live long. And who knows the other normal motleys from that litter may have weak genes.

IMO I would breed a Motley het Albino to an Albino or in your case your Albino Motley to a nice het. Albino or even a DH Sunglow which aren't expensive and you can produce some really nice SUNGLOW MOTLEYS...just a thought
