info on albino's

colbyandamber Mar 09, 2004 11:20 PM

hey,
i was wondering if all types of albino's are able to breed the trait, ex: would a hi contrast to a faded still put out a albino offspring or a hi contrast to a "norm" albino? just wondering.

I believe that traits such as "faded" and "hi contrast" are certainly genetic, however the gene pool in albinos still pretty much is a grab-bag for various versions of albino. After a few more generations of selectively breeding for specific traits like hi contrast, it may become a reasonable expectation to hatch hi contrast babies from hi contrast parents. Currently however, it is still far from a guarantee....
