>>Is Brianīs Caramell a proven T positiv or just a colour-description?

Has it been checked against the BHB Caramel - or even (gasp!) the standard hypo gene? I see some differences, but no more than the differences between regular albino hog and red albino hog (even if you ignore the photoshoped images of reds.....lol). May this just be a new look to an old morph thanks to outcrossing to other locality phenotypes?

Come on, it may be "new new new," but why is nobody asking for or presenting that it is even been tested against the most likely allelic traits?????

Are we jumping on the bandwagon too early? I HOPE this is a new gene completely, but hope isn't enough. With snake morphs, we've learned that our EYES aren't enough, either!
