I certainly notice the more brilliant white on the piebald as well and Ive always felt that played an important role (whether conscious or not) with the popularity and stable value.

The closest Leucistics to the white of a pied in my opinion are the super lessers and possibly the black eyed lucies (despite the B.E.L. get yellow dots).

I saw these pics on an earlier post. I hope the owner does not mind me using them. These animals are not mine but its a good group photo.





The two darker ones dont look like ivories to me so Im guessing their super mojaves. I could be wrong. If they are super mojaves then they are arguably not a good example of a leucistic snake. Unfortunately, to me, they seem rather dirty and considerably dark compared to a super lesser or lesser mojave. The super mojave may not be as bad as the pearl but it certainly isnt convincing enough for me to want one as my "all white BP".
