Here are some other thing you said.
"Where do we find the most concentration of black on a boa ? Around the tail and the most on the side . In the blond albinos, even adults don’t have black on the sides around the blotches.
Here is one of my pair, the darker and less collorfull one. Breeding pic at 4 years, not the pair that produce my previous litter. Grey lavender, no black, just like they were as babies exept for the yellow, blonde, caramel color that they devellope with age, like the other stain..
Here is a new born, 2 days old, no black, grey and lavender on the tail, it will not have more when adult and it will not get darker. "

I'm sorry but those scales are black in those pictures you posted. They look like pretty good pictures and the look like really amazing boas, but I think the word "Albino" is misleading. I realize through looking at albinism in humans you have come to the conclution that T Pos. albinos can have normal eyes. But putting that aside, those babies you just produced have black scales. They look like really awesome pink pastel boas. I don't think I'm the only one who thinks those are not T Pos. Albinos. Would John Berry's updated book on morphs classify those as T Pos. because you said they were? Doesn't it matter what you call a snake? I'm not trying put down your project because they are truely stunning animals I just want a little more proof.

Here are some other statements

" In conclusion, if you did not felt asleep, these are some of the reasons that lead us to say that the “blonde albinos” are T positive. Not to mention, that like for the VPI, they produce abberancies, widow pics, a special pattern, and it also appear that, I produce in my litter some clean and collorfull one that remind me the so called “pink panther “. "
-I don't think the fact that they resemble the VIP lines pattern, sometimes, should have any bareing on whether they are T Pos. or not.

"Our strain has not been refined yet . I just did a F2 homozygote breeding. We are just scratching the potential of the T positive blonde albinos,, with red pastels, they will have no black, will keep their colors and will not devellope dark pigment with age ! They will clean up blood lines without adding colors like the salmons do......."
-Pastels do this very well.

"Remember how you see them, on pics, through a more less adjusted sreen, having them in hands makes the difference !"
-I hope someday I do see them in person, the Magma's too!!

Can you post more pics of the translucent pink tounges again, I can't find them.
