im new here

Hi and welcome. :) I'm new around here too. Albinos are cool! My absolute favorite morph is the pied. I really love ringers too. I hope one day I can breed a pied. That's my dream.

khara, you should just get a pair of pied hets, there way cheaper than homozygous pieds.

I agree, especially considering my budget. ;) I think that would be the best way to go and I bet it would be even more satisfying to breed out a pied myself. It's still a year or so off though because I need to learn more before I try to breed BPs.

Female het albinos are pretty pricy too you know.. not much different from a het pied.

how much do het albino females go for?

You can get a pair of hets for around $900. A female is about $700.. you can get 50% hets for less.

yeah but you wouldnt know if the poss. hets were het albino or not

Yes, that's true, but you save a couple hundred dollars. What I would do, is buy a 100% het male, and start with one 50% het female. As I saved more money, I'd buy more 50% het females. You are bound to get at least one het albino female.. and you may even have all hets.

It's a risk, but still, with the 100% het male, the offspring will be 50% het just bred to a normal, and you can sell them and easily buy a 100% het female.
