    Albino x albino breeding - is this a good cross??
    Hi guys,
    I have and adults 1,1 albino balls, thet are totally unrelated and I wish to breed them this season. Does anybody know/ made this before?

    I heared that such a crossings can end up with some babies deformities or infertile eggs. Have you ever experience such a thing?

    Did this 2 times last season first clutch resulted in 3 babies hatching and all 3 had very short bottom jaws and all three came out of there eyes on there own with full unused yolk sacks. after 3 days I checked on them and none had used any of the yolk and upon closer inspection all were kinked in some way or another. I did cull these three because of the small chance for survival. The second clutch was 5 eggs with all going full term and all looking perfect in every way except they were all boys lol.
    I have decided that the problem with the first clutch was a incubator fluke and nothing more, although I am only pairing my Spider het Albino with my visual Albino females this season.

    That was probaly the result of too big of temps swings during incubation. Breeding two Albinos will result in all Albino babies and this pairing should not cause health problems unless there is too much inbreeding!
