Your female looks like what they call a Snow in the Dragon World, but to me they look like they do not have any red pigment, so would be an Anerythristic Dragon. The Leucistics in the Dragon World are not Leucistics at all. They appear to not have any red pigment either with clear nails. This would make them a Hypo(Clear Nails) Snow (Hypo/Anery)
If my observations are correct, when you breed a Leucistic (Clear Nail/Anery) X Snow (Anery) you will produce exactly what you got. An Anery het Clear Nails. Or in Dragon Language a Snow het Leucistic. It seems like what you were told about your dragons parents was true, because if it was just a Hypo(Clear Nails) X Snow breeding, they would have produced Normals double het for Anery and Clear Nails.
I think as far as pattern on a Snow Dragon (Anery) it would depend on how much black pigment is in the line and also red pigment. The black pigment or lack of will show itself. If an Anery comes from a very red line, then when the red is removed by the Anery gene, the dragon will be very light if it is also from a line with very little black pigment. ----- Joe Pierce
