Albino and Toffee are alleles of the same gene. Think of them as being like a SuperButter (Albino) and a SuperPhantom (Toffee). When you breed them together you get a Butter/Phantom (Toffino aka Albino/Toffee)
Or maybe a more human analogy: Eye colour. If you have brown eyes you have two copies of the brown allele. If you have blue eyes you have two copies of the blue allele. If you have hazel eyes you have one copy of the brown allele and one copy of the blue allele
Make sense?

Someone in your area does not know genetics LOL. The animal is either a Pastel het Albino or a Pastel het Toffee, it cannot be het for both

What are you most interested in making? Do you want more Albinos? Albino combos? Toffinos? Toffino combos? Something completely different and you do not care whether it carries the Albino gene??

The calculators don't break down that far. Im not sure why it would tell you that two different recessives mixed together would make a visual albino x toffee. So your question...
Pastel DH Albino x Toffee to a visual albino would net you the following: This is taking into consideration that the DH ALBINO X Toffee is 100% HET for the recessive genes. ie. one parent was visual for either gene. Mom was a toffee dad was an albino or one of them was a visual double recessive.
Albinos possible het toffee
Pastel albinos poss het toffee
Pastel poss het albino and toffee
poss het albino and toffee (normal looking)
albinos
with all this being said I know very little about toffee... I have never worked with it. This example given would be for double recessives. From a quick search Toffee is showing as recessive.
