    Caramel Albinos?

    I was looking at my Genetic Wizard Morph Calculator and it said that if i bred a bell line caramel albino to a regular caramel albino i would get 100% het. Caramel Albino, het. Caramel Albino (Bell Line).... Is this true i would have thought i would just get 100% Caramel Albino? Please let me know!

    Caramel x Caramel = all Caramels

    The only number up in the air is how many are kinked.

    The calculator is incorrect. The Bell's line of caramel is compatible with the other lines. You would get 100% caramel albinos. There are some other types of T+ albinos that are not compatible though, such as ultramel.

    The problem with most of the genetic wizards out there is that they don't take into account things like different bloodlines or allele "complexes" of morphs. So, if the programmer considered "Bell line caramel" and "TSK line caramel" to be separate, the program will treat it as separate morphs even though they aren't (just different bloodlines).

    This calculator made by a user on this site does a much better job with handling things like bloodlines:

    ... The other thing to consider if you're considering caramel x caramel is the stuff brought up in this thread:
