Occasionally I hatch out a hypomelanistic leopard tortoise (one or two a year). Depending on how they are raised they can grow to be a very white tortoise or dark tortoise. The attached pictures are an example. I have never kept any of my hypos and raised them up for new breeders so I don’t know what the offspring would look like.
