served as a basis for choosing a baby from a group of 66% hets. I personally picked out my female 66% het because she has solid color eyes (all Leopards have solid colored eyes), and abberant pattern.

It however is not true that ALL Leopard hets are abberant. I looked through a LOT of them in Daytona that Hans had with him, after I had bought my Leopard. Some I liked more than Leopards, others were as normal as can be. Hans (obviously the most experienced with Leopards and hets) said that there is no conclusive evidence to the claim although many have made the observation.

Also, did you see the Leopard X High Contrast Albino Double hets that the Burkes produced last year?
Some of them had CRAZY abberancies, others were as normal as possible. (It should be noted that this is the only Kahl Albino X Winner Leopard breeding done to date, released to the public.)

Here is a Picture of my 66% het, and of my Leopard. Also Rentfro line Sonorans, a normal and a Hypo, siblings(U.S. bloodline). Linda Hedgpeth now owns the Hypo and Michael Beach owns the normal.
