    Re: Genetics question Albino x "Normal"

    Sorry to even ask this, I'm just trying to figure this stuff out. I would have thought you could breed an albino to a normal and get at least one albino. But from different source online, I'm gathering that it's not a possibility.
    Albino is a Recessive trait, unless the Normal is het for albino, you will only get het albinos, and no visuals.

    I think that you want to outcross albinos in albinos, due to birth defects from so much inbreeding ( I believe this is why if you breed even albino to albino, you can get albinos with no eyes) So id breed the offspring to a different albino. someone correct me if this last part is wrong.
