Albino strains

This may be a strange question but what would happen if a albino kahl and an albino sharp where bred would their babies be albino with a mix of the two strains?

In a manner of speaking, yes. They would be normal in appearance and carry both genes. This breeding is a horrible idea because you'll muddy those animal's genetics and any of their offsprings as you'll never really be able to tell what kind of albino you're producing.

I was under the impression they would carry one or the other gene and you wouldn't know until you bred it if it was Kahl or Sharp . Not true?

No, it's not. They would carry both genes.

I did not know that. So from one female I can produce both types of albinos? That's crazy. I read and was told they could only produce one or the other strain. I could see why not to breed Kahl and Sharp together.
Thanks James.

correct you just wouldn't really be able to tell which was which, so it becomes a genetic quagmire and is best to be avoided.
