.....Its all good Andy...dont give up now..LOL.....MARK[/QUOTE said:
Its not a matter of giving up Mark, lol.
The thing is, Ive got 3 standard females for the white boy to sire (hopfuly) and a het female.
So if he is a she, the chance of getting 3 clutches of hets with new stronger bloodlines.
and a clutch of 50% white and 50% hets will be down the drain.

All the time, effort and money would be a waste.
Im not rich, it would be a huge setback for me :cry:

Crappers , Hope He is a He!
Albino olives are the bees knees!
 
I understand Andy,i was saying the person from whom you got them from should rectify the mistake,if it turns out to be female i would imagine he would swap and give you a male [ if he has any ] .IMO he is defiantly a keeper-breeder that i wouldnt have any dramas in buying more animals from....For you sake Andy i hope he is a HE and not a female.....MARK

hope its not mate the same thing happened to a friends jungle
 
wokka,
To date ive had no problems at all breeding albino olives, but ive only used the one male thou and may of just been lucky with him as he is definitley a vigours breeder as you would know.
Time will tell once i get all these other olives up to breeding size.

You are the only breeder I know who has had 100% success rate with the Albinos. Lucky or Skillful???

Wokka, Time will tell when these others are breeding size. Although skillfull is not the reason i dont think,(you know me, im not skillfull at all i just do a few things differently to most people). I think that it is just a matter of giving them the right conditions to live in and getting the animals themselves in the right condition prior to breeding.
 
here are some pics of my normals
