the hypothesis that the type 2's are axanthic, or lacking yellow pigment.

Since we have wiped out blacks/browns with the amelanism gene (ie "albino" and wiped out reds with the anerythristic gene... the only thing left to wipe out is yellow. If the type twos end up lacking yellow I think we could see some nearly all white boas - keyword nearly . Even if the type 2's are not actually axanthic - I bet they will make whiter snows because of their increased black.
