Bill...
the reason snow hasn't been made is because not enough triple hets have been bred yet...Todd Smith and Glenn from Y-Knot Reptiles are the only people to have bred triple hets together.
Since snow happens in 1 out of every 16 babies...it might take a couple of years or more to produce one.
Todd has bred his triple hets twice...in '04 he only got two eggs out of the female...and a blonde and "normal" hatched.
This year he got an albino and silvers of both patterns.
The axanthic is TRULY axanthic, and the albino is truly albino...so a snow will happen.
I am guessing this year it will happen becuase I and (from what he told me) Craig Trumbower will be breeding ours as well.
There's bound to be a snow in there somewhere.
