Really, that's cool considering the T plus gene hasn't been around all that long. The t negative has, since about 1996 or earlier I think. The T positive gene hit the hobby in 2007 I think, so it's still fairly new. The T positive was originally produced over the pond and imported into the states. How much are they asking for the T positive female?

I can see why, they are some of the nicest morphs in tricolors I have seen.

Considering the t plus gene is co-dominate to the amelanistic gene, if you breed a t negative to a t plus, 50% of the babies will be t plus and 50% of the babies will be T negative. Now I don't know if the T-negative's are carriers for the T plus gene or not. I don't know anyone that has done that breeding yet. I am sure it has been done I just don't know the outcome.

Well we will see what happens next year lol hope I get one T+ babie out of the clutch I got an feeling tho it will all be babie albino nelson tho his female is just colorful

You should get more than one, I think out of a six egg clutch last year, Shannon Brown produced 4 t plus and two normal albino's. So it is like playing the lottery or a game of percentages. Normal albino's sell for $30.00 and T plus sell for $400.00.

Yea lol if I get more than one I may keep them exspecialy if one an female and a male and who know I could get an double clutch everytime I gamble I lose so I hope if not the same way with breeding
