Tangerine albino x Tri-color albino?

What would this pair yield? Are the two albinos traits compatable?

It's the same albino gene in both. Tangerine and tri-color are just two color variations of hondurans. So if you bred the two types together you'd get 100% albinos, some of which are tri-colors and some that are tangerines.

Thanks for the quick reply! I figured that was the deal since two normal hondos can yield both tri-color and tangs. Thanks for clearing that up. Looks like I will be having some tang and tri-colors next year then!

I dont have any Hondos not sure if for me since the ones I have seen even as adults high strung but HOLY COW the colors are unreal that snake is amazing.
Its like a painting.

Every adult I have ever had has been quite calm and gentle. Never been bit or musked on by an adult. Juvis are definitly high strung though.

Here is an adult female under the ghost that has had the on-to-genetic change of the white to yellow. Most females change like this rather than stay all white when they are young. I think she is quite fine and her male liked her so much he was giving her bites here and there (Breeding oh such fun) I wanted to get a pic but him doing it but it happens so quickly. He's been quite the breeder this year so far....
Hope to share some clutches soon with you all.
