What is there to prove? If the sire was an albino and the mother a normal than all offspring are 100% heterozygous for albino. Two hets bred together would result in each egg having 25% chance of being normal (not carry the albino allele), 50% chance of being 100% heterozygous, and 25% chance of being homozygous (albino). Recessive genes such as albinism is pretty much straight forward, cut and dry.

Ignore them lol it's the internet, if that's really the best thing they have to do then I don't know what to say, since their opinion on YOUR tegus doesn't really matter or help anyone. Some of us would like to see your tegus just because we enjoy seeing them, not as "proof".

the internet is not a good place for rational thinking. not this forum in particular but online games bring out peoples inner a$$ hole. people say things online sometime that they would never dream of saying in person. this forum is pretty good about being polite and not just deliberatly trying to bring someone down. i think a big part of people being offended is that they sometimes dont say the whole thought but only a fraction. then things come accross differently then what the person originally intended, and i think that is why there are fights that break out on here.

The farther the thread from the norm, the more circular the logic, or out of character responses from members will make the view count go higher.
