    Check out Precision Reptiles. They're in Germany.

    They have a link to the albino on the front page of their website

    I think so much can be done with the granites and caramels. Although, I here both have some weak genes associated with the morphs. Very few granites have been hatched when you look at the overall picture. Even fewer caramels.

    If the albino trait proves to be a stronger gene I think people will look at carpets in a new light. Especially your smaller carpets like the IJ's.

    As one of the only 3 people in the United States to own a caramel, I am not sure what you mean about weak genes with them.
    There has been some issues with the granites but they are still a rather new mutation and as it gets bred out into more established lines of IJ's, I see no problems with them.

    As for the albino hets in the US, they are Darwin x IJ and Darwin x coastal. There are no pure Dawin hets in the US at this moment. But you can bet when they become available, I will have some!!
