You are right, with the small exception that Rat snakes have been tested for dopa. There were two Albinos that appeared T-, they were bred together and all normal offspring resulted. Lab tests proved that one was T- the other T-positive.



I think these, the Prodigy, and possibly the Nicaraguan and Argentine versions will show to be Hypomelanistic type mutations. I think the VPI and Paradigm strains will be some form of Albino.

I also feel that given the result in the rat snake test that between Sharp and Kahl both are not T-negative.



For now it is important for people to realize we use these names to describe them and that we do not know what is going on on a chemical basis.
