    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....

I currently have an albino burm and an albino retic. there babies so i have a little time to think about this. I have allready heard about the method of how to bread them. The question i have is pretaining to the genetic aspect.......This is what i think...... if both snakes are both albino that means they have both have recessive genes, if the burm is aa and the retic is bb there babies will be ab. but does that mean they will come out albino bateaters or bateaters that look normal with with recessive burm albino genes and recessive retic albino genes. Im still a novice when it comes to this stuff and need some help. Am i close or miles away with my assumption.

thanks
 
The albino trait is expressed differently in burms and retics (we don't have white, lavender, and purple albino burms). That could be a function of the gene anomoly itself, or where it is carried. If it is not the same anomoly that causes the phenotype, or if it occurs at a different point in the genomic structure, I doubt that the albino trait would be evidenced when crossing the two.
In other words, not all forms of albinism are compatible (see Kahl and Sharp strains in boas, for example), so don't count on getting albinos
