Awesome Kenyan, cant wait to get three!

I'm not sure what would be a technically appropriate term for a morph like that. I personally dont like the use of T-plus albino since you cant visually tell it apart from various grades of hypo. Afterall, T-plus might also be a valid term for hypos. For example hypos could have a perfectly normal tyrosinase gene but some other mutation that reduces melanin.

In the end it might just be semantics. I mean what is a T-plus albino anyway?

Best,
Vinny
