Congrats Steve, nice looking group.

Thanks everyone. I'm not a huge fan of albinos but these are sweet little scrubs. I'm glad their dad was able to leave me some of his gene pool to work with. There must be at least one male out of this group.

Thanks everyone. I'm not a huge fan of albinos..

Well then, since you're not a fan of albinos I'll take them all of your hands, free of charge of course lol

Funny, funny.
Hence, the way I worded the post. "I'm not a huge fan" but yet a fan.

Some of the new scrubs are already eating.

can you sex them??

[ConcinusMan]

Awww!, so cute!
Was the entire litter albino?

If mom and dad were both albino, (and assuming it's the same loci responsible for each of parents amelanism) then all babies could only be albino since neither parent has a normal allele to pass to the offspring. They each only have a pair of mutated alleles so that's all they have to pass on. It would be impossible for the babies to be anything but albino. They can't inherit something that neither parent has.

Nice litter Steve!

can you sex them??

If by your question you mean "pop" them. Then the answer would be no.
I'll just have to wait for them to get older, unless you want to swing by and do you thing Joe

Sure ill come sex them for you, its interesting to see the ratios they throw. i would like to do a video on sexing baby garters to show how easy it really is. its a useful tool.
