    Every time I see this guy pop up, he's being a complete idiot.

    Two Headed Albino Bateater.

    I didn't even bother to read his lesson since he believes I misused loci lol... His point is moot since the species are not genetically similar enough to be compatible in albino crosses. And yes after looking again those screen shots are from Jays two headed white albino Retic...

    How long have you been working with retics and how many of what type do you personally own?
    I may not be very smart, but what if I am?

    Two Headed Albino Bateater.

    One year with Retics in house. I have 9. 6 of them contain albino genetics two visuals 4 hets. No none of them or amel or type II albino because its a pain to have to make males that specialized. But that has nothing to do with my background in genetics. No attacks today Wilomn it's pointless.

    I was not trying to say that the two-headed animal was absolutely a bat-eater, I do not have the knowledge to make that assessment and I gladly yield to others on that matter. All I was contending was that an Albino bat-eater could indeed occur.

    What a wonderfully enlightened point of view, someone points out that you do not understand something and rather than consider that they might, just may be, correct you instead take the attitude that they are the stupid one...

    You did misuse loci, your own words betray you:

    Right there you say that all three types of Albino in retics fall on the same loci and then you say that they are all different/not compatible. If they all fall on the same locus then they would be compatible. Since they are not compatible they do not fall on the same locus.

    There are (I believe) three separate and distinct Albino loci in retics:

    Purple/White
    Type II
    Green

    And this is just hogwash. The species are genetically similar enough to create a hybrid but they are not genetically similar enough for the hybrid to be Albino... The T-neg albino locus is the tyrosinase gene. Tyrosinase is tyrosinase is tyrosinase. Does not matter if it is in a retic or a Burm or a ball or a corn or a chondro or an iguana or a axolotl or a bullfrog or a budgie or a cat or a human. Same gene product in all of them and deleting it gives the same phenotype. If both parents lack the gene then the offspring will too. Basic genetics right there.
