.....would of course be that the leucy had some distant amel Black rat genetics in it's lineage. It would have to be back a few generations because the het Texas Rat pair you posted look so incredibly textbook authentic in their phenotype.

Since they both have been sold for many years now, there has to be tons of them that have been inadvertently crossed leucy Black x leucy Texas rats over the years. And of course the "pink eyed" Texas leucy's would VERY likely be from the addition of the Black Rat amel gene that has been around for many years,...know what I mean?
