Afrxafr=?
recently bought two big batch of quality AFR from two different source inside af,...both batch is less than 1mth with me,other than afr,i dont keep any guppies.
first few babies dont know from which mother gives afr but these few days,i start seeing probably normal guppies fries was born from dont know which mother i am curious is this normal,not all afrxafr produce 100%afr or could it be one of the previous owner hv accidently mix with his other species of guppies before i bought them? dont worry,not witch hunting,just want to learn about guppy genetic.all comment and theory are welcome. btw what should i do to the non albino fries that i got now,seperate them or leave them within the group happy guppy keeping |

Albino X Albino produce grey eyes offspring? It is possible, I have a few pairs of albino guppies producing 100% grey eyes offspring.
Keep the fry, I have new strains from them. |

sorry to hear tat its from 'quality' afr u bought tat resulted in grey eyes. usually, reputable sellers will tell u if it's pure stable strains. therefore any grey eyes would be freak incidents. If the grey eyes r many, then maybe the strain is not stable. bcos Quality afr x Quality afr = 99.99% afr.

most likely one of the AFR pair you got the parent is offspring of some AFR X grey eye FR before thats why now you getting some Grey eye FR...keep the baby groom it well..use it to cross back to their parent if possible if not den maybe other albinos offsprings from the other parent if you wan more AFR babies...
Just my 2 cents Last edited by kian_john; 03-08-2012 at 01:10 PM. |

Albino producing grey eyes offspring has nothing to do with quality, pure or stable.
There are two possibilities only. First is the albino female has been hit by non albino before. Second is via mutation. There is no pure albino or quality albino...some breeder mixed up the terms. We use pure strain, stable strain, breed through strain. |
