Het Albino x Het Caramel Albino
What is the result for this one??
Re: Het Albino x Het Caramel Albino
possible het albinos and possible het caramel albinos, possible double hets and normals.
these animals, no matter their genetics, will all look like normal ball pythons.
the albino and caramel albino genes arent the same type of albinism. regular albinos are T- (Tyroniase sp) and caramels are T+.
Hope that helps :)
Re: Het Albino x Het Caramel Albino
That is most likely right but I don't know that anyone has actually tried it even to this day to be sure. Year's ago there was a case where a caramel line was known to throw albinos from time to time and some hets from that line failed to produce caramels and only produced albinos. It got me wondering if albino and caramel might be alleles (different mutations of the same gene) and actually compatible, maybe producing a caramel looking animal. But with the general assumption that they aren't compatible and that the double homozygous albino caramel would look albino and be a waste of the caramel gene I don't think many if any would be willing to try. I bred a possible het caramel to a possible het albino years ago but only got normals and haven't proven either parent yet.
Re: Het Albino x Het Caramel Albino
I have heard a rumor that a double homozygous albino x caramel albino burm has been produced. I was told that it was visually different from the albino and the caramel.
Re: Het Albino x Het Caramel Albino
Interesting. I hadn't been keeping up with burm mutations to even know there was a caramel. With ball python mutations becoming less expensive someone will surely eventually try that combo. I had planned to do it if I ever get both homozygous animals (I don’t have either yet) but with the kinking in caramels and a new and improved caramel like mutation starting to be available wasn’t sure I still wanted to work toward having caramels anymore.
Re: Het Albino x Het Caramel Albino
50% P DH Caramel Albino & Albino.
Caramel Albino = T+
Albinio = T-
It may be the otherway around but I know they're opposites.
Re: Het Albino x Het Caramel Albino
i think ralph davis has tryed pairing
caramel x lav - all eggs went bad
caramel x albino - all eggs went bad
lav x albino - i think he hatched 1 or 2 not sure.
