Im just curious what hypo tangerine carrot tail and a tenper albino makes?

It makes normal looking geckos with a gene for albino ("Het" for albino) with a range in degree of spotting, degree of orange color and amount of carrot tail.

Unless the hypo parent may have the albino-gene, the offspring will look "not albino" because: to be albino, you inherit the albino-gene from BOTH PARENTS. A non-albino has a maximum of 1 albino-gene (which is recessive). this is called "het albino". basically meaning offspring may possibly have 1 albino gene from this parent (which is still only half of the 2 albino-genes required for a baby to be albino).

So if you mix a hypo het albino with a full albino, i think about half the hat hlings will be albino (2 albino genes). the other half will look normal but have atleast gotten the 1 albino gene guaranteed from the albino parent....they would have 1nonalbino gene from the hypo, and 1albino gene from the albino parent. Again, this would be known as "het albino" (only one albino gene...no visible physical difference)

I'm not sure what you want a picture of.

I think you answered it well with your first answer:

I just went into a little bit of confusing detail explaining that there is very reduced chance of producing albino-hatchlings.

Nevermind.
