    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

So I wanted to prove some het albino I bought 5 -6 yrs ago. She finally made weight and looked good last season and dropped 5 healthy eggs. They pipped 2 days ago and there was 2 albinos. One looks like the color pattern is divided into half albino the other half is brown and black. On the head there is a dark spot. Pretty cool looking. Wonder this happen to anyone before? I have yet to see him or her completely out of egg. I will snap some pics tonight.

Sounds like you have yourself a paradox animal! Congrats. Yes it definitely happens sometimes, and in varying degrees. Here is my paradox caramel male that I got from Mark Batch, and then my paradox lesser that I just hatched out 2 days ago. The lesser doesn't have that much paradoxing going on, but that's what I mean by varying degrees.

I was doing some reading on paradox there seems to be many different answers on how one is produced. Some say random and others say its genetic but I can not find any proof of this. Any body try to genetically prove this? Also if I where to sell this animal what price would you put on it.
 
That is hard to say how much they would go for, I think it is based upon how much is showing up on them. Such as blush and Pied. I've not seen any for sale so it's hard to say.
