    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....

Alright, no matter how many times its explained to me I still end up confused in the end, will somebody please tell me the genetic differences between the 2 of them.
 
Tang albinos are line bred.
Some people use to call their tang albinos, where the orange comes over the bands, hybinos as well. But a real Hybino is a cross between a Hypo Tangerine and an albino.
 
Hybino simply has a hypo gene bred into it, so it has reduced spotting...

a tang albino only carries the looks of a tangerine albino, with regular spotting
 
To get a hybino dont you combine the hypo and albino(dont feel like explaining the odda and stuff right now) and to get a tang albino you breed hybinos with tang coloration together to get tang albinos?
 
the long way would be to cross a super hypo to an albino. this gives you all hypos het for albino. if you cross two of those than most of the albino offspring will in fact be hybinos.

crossing a hypo het. for albino to an albino will produce a hybino (unless your really unlucky.) to better your chances cross a super hypo het for albino to an albino. that will produce all hypos with roughly half of them being hybinos and super hybinos.

tangerine really has nothing to do with being a hybino. its just a prettier morph (i.m.o.) the oranger they are, but they come in yellow.

a tangerine albino is just an albino that has been line bred for more orange coloration. you cross two tang albinos, you get more tang albinos (with varying degrees of orange coloration).

a super-tangerine is essentially a linebred orange albino that has also been linebred for less melanin, like a line bred hypo tang but albino.

well actually, if you work it out on a punnett square only 1 in 4 will be homozygous for the albino allele. 2/4 will be hets still and 1/4 will skip the albino gene altogether and be back to a regular tang with no albino genes in it whatsoever. Its all luck of the draw but you are right in saying that an albino will give you better chances than 2 hets.

i never said otherwise. 25% of the babies will be albinos, 2/3 of which will be either hybino or super hybino.

most of the albino offspring will in fact be hybinos

Ok now Im getting confused.....I have been breeding snakes for years, but this year was my first attempt at breeding leos. I have a female SHTCT that I bred to a male Tremper Albino.....so far I have 6 eggs in the incubator.....will the babies be Hybinos, also correct me if I'm wrong but if I were to breed these offspring back to the father I would get sunglows??

Only if the female ishet for Tremper albino & Hybino/Sunglow are the same morph.

2/3 will in fact NOT be Hybinos, they will be hets.

As NYGECKO said, 1/4 be tangs and 1/4 will be Hybinos and 2/4 will be hets. This is the 66% het scenario. :slamit:

as I said:

1/4 (25%) will be ALBINO. of the 25% that will be ALBINO, 2/3s of the 25% that is ALBINO will be either HYBINO or super HYBINO because they will also carry one or two copies of the HYPO gene.

and tang is a linebred trait, i think your thinking of HYPO.

Sorry I misread what you said. I thought you were saying 2/3 will be hybinos.

What will the other 1/3 be.
