In considering a het. for albino vs. a possible het. for albino, my understanding is there is a better chance of albino offspring with the het. for albino. Would that be 25% more? Would het. for albino then be more desirable when bred with albino?

A 100% het will carry the gene for sure. A 50% or 66% het will have the possibility of carrying the gene.
