If I produce any pieds out of my Albino x het female, I will keep them. I will know that they are 100% het for Albino.

I'm sure that there are better ways to do it, but this was the most cost efficient route for me.

I always ask myself these 3 questions

1. How much $ you are willing to invest?
2. How patient you are?
3. How much do you like to gamble?
I appreciate the cost constraints and this could be a fun longshot project anyway but, until and unless you produce a pied you can't actually be certain that you have any male carrying pied genes. 5 x 66% double het girls gives you a reasonable chance with the females but I can't help thinking that it might have been worth your while investing in a male pied somewhere along the line, or better a female pied to go with the male albino 66% het pied tp produce your own double hets-at least you would know what the babies were then.
