    Default Albino x ornata. what colour morph will i get ?

    I have 3 males and 1 female. I am going to attempt to breed my horned frogs this year, but cant decide witch male to be the one to let spawn. My female is a ornate. my males are a ornate an albino and a fatesy frog. [ i know fantasy frogs are infertile, but he will go in the rain tank anyway to encurage calling]. So my question is this. What colour morph will i get if i cross the albino male with the ornate female ?

    It'll look the same as if you crossed it with a regular Cranwelli - albinos can only occur if *both* parents have the gene (either as full albinos or heterozygotes("hidden genes")), and so far as I know there are no ornate albinos (or so few that it's high unlikely your female carries the gene hidden). The offspring will be heterozygous for albinism, but probably also infertile (if I recall, cranwelli and ornata have different chromosome counts), so there's not even any possibility to crossing the hybrids to get albino babies.
