awesome work Mike :-)!!
Don't give up yet- I hatched a leopard paradox albino like this, and to my surprize it even breed and was fertile ;-).
So, keep my fingers crossed for you :-)!!

Very interesting frog Mike. I encourage to read some books on genetics in herps, as you have A LOT of variation here that you're going to want to breed for in the future I'm sure! The "half albinism" is very interesting because in a lot of cases it is actually a "chimera," which means it actually is literally 2 frogs that combined into one in the embryo, unlike paradox morphs which still have black eyes.
As a reptile breeder i have never seen or even heard of this specific type of genetic mutation. the closest thing i can come up with is albino paradox. In the snake world for an example reccessive traits like if you breed albinos together you get albinos and normals but %100 heterozygous albino. But paradox is just a random gene that pops up and cant be duplicated but theres a high chance of all the siblings of the albino paradox to carry the paradox gene. It will just randomly appear out of no where from one random breeding.
