Wow!,.....the deep "ruby-red" eyes on that one are pretty intense!

Yes, the leucistic gene started in what was supposed to be a Texas Rat,..although later on a leucistic Black Rat was captured in Ohio,...and they too have been available for some time as well.......I'm sure by now there are some in the hobby that have mixed lineage too....Since there meristics(scale counts) are virtually identical, anyone would be hard-pressed to distinguish the two if they were looking at truly unknown examples.

After all, if the scalation is the same, and they are both pure white, what left is there to go on!..LOL!


I like your animal, it has some neat orange colored hues!
