I bred a pure rufescen to one of my other kenyans(no rufescen blood). I just had 22 babies today and they are all striped. I was expecting some normals and tigers. Has anyone else ever had this happen?

Here's a picture of the babies. The father is pure rufescen and the mom is a paradox albino het snow.

Congrats on the babies.
a croos with ruf X Normal
will give strips
And yours strips are now het albino poss snow.
'But if you cross a stripe with a normal you will get 50% Strips and 50% Tigerish "Normal looking animals"

A pure to a normal can give tigers/normals as well. I would say that you lucked out and got all stripes!

Great looking litter.

Ok, thank you for the information. I can't wait to get rufescen paradox albinos.

Correct me if I'm wrong....but since "rufescens" morph animals are just hypermelanistic sandboas and albinos don't produce melanin, won't you just get a rufescens with some white splotching?

I don't think so, because I've seen albino striped rufescens. So, I would think an albino paradox one would look the same as it, but with the black markings of the paradox.

I would expect the resulting litter to include albino paradox stripes.
