I love reading these threads especially the heated ones. I find all of this very interesting but must say for someone that is learning the basics, or people just wanting a pet the term ghost is appropriat for an animal that shows a distinct shadowing apperance. Most of you seem to discussing scientific data and then trying to come to an agreement on what would be a good DISCRIPTIVE name for that. Hypo,amel,anery,axanthic, albinism, ect, all refer to some sort of scientificly proven or accepted definition regarding pigment in herps and is difficult to say the least for us newcomers to understand. I don't see it turning me away from these animals. I do however feel that the "big guys" here on this forum will suffer as far as what newcomers and other breeders will think of them and there animals. There seem to be a group of you that are the pro when it comes to Rosys and it would be benifical to the rosy enthusiasts to get together and use scientific name to describe scientific trates and possibly get away from the catchy, more sellable names that have been being used. To face facts who is going to buy a new morgh for big bucks? probably those who will also understand what the scientific name represents. Just how I see it as someone whos been in this for only a year or so.
