Ok. Need to pick your brains guys please.
Breeding pair of 100% Het 'binos. Am I right in thinking that: 25% chance of progeny being visual 'bino, 25% chance of progeny being 100% het 'bino and 50% chance of being normal wild-type.
Cheers Paul |

OMG. This is scary. I've got an exam on genetic fingerprinting, STR analysis and SNPs in a couple of months. Pass the McDonalds application form please  |

So how do you know whether they are 100% Het Albino or wild-type if they both look the same? |

You don't, hence they are sold as 66% ph.
As 2/3 are het or 66% (66.6666 etc really). |

So if a pair are being sold as 100% Het Albino does that mean that they would have been proved through breeding? |

Or they are the offspring of a Homozygous (Visual) and a Normal. |

So all of the offspring of this pairing would be either visual or 100% het? No wild-type at all? |

With:
Homozygous (visual) albino x Normal - All will be 100% het albino (look normal), none will be visual. |

Ah. That must be what they are selling then.
Just want to make sure that I have a good chance of producing some 'binos. Most of the breeders down here are selling visuals for a ridiculous amount of money.
Right. Next challenge is to convince the Mrs. Financial proof normally works. Success = shoes. That kind of thing . |

Yay!!! Jo's up for the idea.   Happy days  .
Just gotta figure out what I need to get in the way of equipment and what I can build myself now. Just spotted a pair of 100% het piebalds for £500 still up for grabs at DJ Reptiles. What would a visual 'bino x visual piebald give you?
Addicted to reptiles? No, not me . |

Nice one Paul 
I think visual albino x visual Pied = all 100% het for both 'bino and pied/ |
