Questions About Producing Super Ball Hybrids

[AbsoluteApril]

What if an albino Ball was crossed with an Albino Blood?

Bloods have T+ and T- versions of albino. Assuming neither is compatible with the albino gene in BP, breeding albino ball x albino blood would result in hybrids double het for both. Breeding those offspring would get you hybrid albinos expressing either of the albino genes or both at the same time. Would someone be able to tell the difference? I'm not sure.

It's kind of like the people that wanted to breed kahl strain and sharp strain albino boas to get DH and try to produce a snake expressing both strains, why? It most likely wouldn't look any different than a normal albino and all it would cause is mass confusion over which genes the animal actually carried.

Also, what if the Ball and Blood were both only Het Albino? Could they still produce Albino offspring?

Only if the albino genetics were the same in both species; both carried the compatible albino gene on the same locus. I assume they would not.

If you want to bring albino into the hybrid, my suggestion would be to pick one or the other, albino ball or one of the strain of albino blood, and use that to create your hets and then breed the hets for the visual.

Look at cremecicle corns, they are an albino hybrid of corn snake and emory rat snake, the albino gene comes from the corn snake. They are a pale orange color, the natural muted colors of the emory reduced the overall bright reds that were in the albino corn.

I hope this helps?
