A morph question

So I am not good a wording stuff so bear with me.
I have two het albino boas I understand that I have a 1 in 4 chance of getting an albino or there abouts. The father to these was a very nice coral albino.
If both hets have an extra helping of pink, the male being very dark pink and lots of it, more then Ive ever seen in any normal.
Is there a chance of having a coral albino baby or am I just dreaming?

It's possible. Coral albino is a line bred trait in albinos. You could get some but they wouldn't look the nicest most likely.

Re: A morph question

I was pretty sure it was line bred but then read that it was also unpredictable in most cases.
So would a "not the nicest" coral albino be prettier then a normal albino?

I am trying to decide if I want to breed these two or go for a different breeding. The male is old enough but not the female.
My big concern is the female is nice and clean, the male is not clean at all but I love the look he has, the dark against the brilliant coral pinks.
I think the normals might be a somewhere in between and not be good looking at all.

A low quality coral albino will beat out the average albino. I'm sure a top notch albino would beat out a low quality coral albino.

It's up to you really. I'd do the pairing if you want albinos and any corals is a bonus to you.
