    here's my girl

    And I have two males and a female from that breeding if I understand correctly. Not sure what to expect from that but they do appear to be average every day normal radixes. Debating whether or not to breed an iowa male to that female, or breed brother and sister.

    well there is two good reasons to breed the albino to the normal, first its always good to outcross and second youll know what your babies will be and that would be 100% hets

    Re: Is Red Really Red?

    True. There is also a chance that any one of the three I have from this breeding are hets for albino (actually, nebraska AND iowa). Anyway I did all the correct calculations using the advanced genetics wizard and there's only a 25% chance that any one of these three is het for nothing. So, I suppose breeding them to an iowa albino has a good chance of producing albinos, plus I would know that all the offspring are 100% hets.

    Re: Is Red Really Red?

    That's not exactly how it comes out. I figured it up correctly and there's a 75% chance that the babies I have are het for nebraska, iowa, or both. Don't really know how the red figures in but it would be nice if it popped up one day on an albino. I believe that one this female is big enough, I'll breed her to an iowa male I have that is also het for nebraska.

    I have a male with red skin and scales but he's not at breeding age yet. It will be another year.
