Quick albino question.

A ball python albino male + female = all albinos?

Only if they are both Visual (Homozygous) albinos as the albino morph is recessive

Yes, If I reproduce a het albino male vs a het albino female and I take 2 of the albino babys (not hets or normals) male and female will produce ALL albinos right?

And more details? IS one albino the other het...? eh.

Have you been to this website?

This website has a list of every ball python morph, and a "calculator" to determine the odds for what ever breeding that you can think of.

Where I find normal balls on the morph wizard?

Or what would I get from a het male albino vs a normal female?

So..You're going to take two babies that are albino? I'm sorry i might be reading in to it to much... This is me right now... :confused:

BUT this is always a good place to go for a QUICK question of "what will I get?"

HET to a normal would be a hit or miss... your best bet is two hets, or a het to a albino or just plain and simple! Two albino's :)

Assuming that you get an albino female and an albino male out of the clutch and breed them yes they will produce all albino offspring. However from a het to het albino breeding statistically only 1 out of 4 eggs will be albino. Its pretty presumptuous that you will in fact get a male and female albino out of a het to het breeding, def possible in reality but not statistically. You will find that things never go as we want them to. I wish you the best of luck and hope you do hit the odds and get your male and female albino though. Also doing things this way for albinos will take you years, i suggest getting an albino male they are only a couple hundred dollars and breeding him to a het female. Also I have heard of problems with breeding albinos to albinos especially when line breeding.

Just random hear say or is there some links to this information?

I have bred Albino x Albino Balls a couple times with no issues...I also know a bunch of others that have done this with no issues.

On a side note I also breed Albino x Albino Retics with no problems.

I personally wouldn't put a het to a normal. If you want to put a het to a non-het you should breed it to a codom or dom.

Yes just random hearsay. I heard it on this site actually. I believe what I heard was they are sometimes born without eyes and other eye issues or something to that affect, I'll see if I can find it.

I think this is the one I was refering to. There are more I will try to find them.

There is only like 1 guy who thought that there was a issue and everyone else said that their wasn't. excessive inbreeding will cause defects in any morph, I think that this might be the cause of what you are saying, and it just happened to be 2 albinos.

Yes, I can read, and yes, excessive inbreeding can cause defects in any animal, that kind of goes without saying dont you think. I wasnt saying that I buy into it or anything I was just throwing it out there since I did hear it. I was just making "small talk" if you will.

I have never had any issues breeding albino x albino. Never heard of any either. Keep in mind the albino was pretty much the first power morph that started tgis crazy thing we call morph breeding. If their were issues we would have heard alot about it. The only albinos ive had issues with are caramel albinos. Its known with them and tail kinkers just like the spider and the wobbles. These issues have been known but like i said i personally dont know of any issues with regular albinos

This is very true. I just remembered seeing that on this sight before, its the only time I had ever heard anything like it. It may have been numerous factors for the other person such as incubation issues, bad genetics, or excessive inbreeding. Who knows.
