Does anyone have any information (or even educated guesses) on Sanzinia "morph" genetics? I have a very green pair of green Sanzinia that just turned out to be two females. Now they're both breeding with my "other" (only) available male. I believe this male is some form of axanthic (since his ground color is a purplish silver and his siblings are all normal looking).

So, does anyone know how the green color is carried? I suspect its multiple allelic as the green tends to be graded (some animals are more green than others), but I would be interested if anyone has some real knowledge of this.

And if anyone knows anything about axanthisim in this animal. It would be interesting to know as well.

Thanks
