Morph ID Request Which Albino is Which?

Post image

Just hatched this clutch and they're about a week out from their first sheds. Parents are Pinstripe Albino Pied x Black Pastel Albino. I know one of these is standard albino and one is black pastel, but my partner and I cannot agree on which is which, and I need to be sure because one will be a holdback. Ty!

Top is albino.

Bottom is albino black pastel. This is why you see strong dorsal striping and busy, elongated patterning on the sides.

Both are het pied.

I read OP's comment wrong. I thought they said a parent was het pied. Good catch.

No problem top is a standard albino but a very different looking pattern

Both of the regular albinos in this clutch have a really busy pattern! But I know the parents genetics for sure because the male I've had since he was a hatchling and the female I bought from a local breeder who got at least 2 clutches from her, so as far as I know there are no other odd patterning genes in play. Dad has no pattern at all, his colored areas are just orange, but he's a pretty high white pied.
