Hmm. I thought they had a lot of similarities with the sulfur mojaves I saw. I was paying attention to the blushing taking over the animals sides. Fires and sulfurs both reveal that blushing in between the pattern. The Sutherland's also produced a fire mojave last year, and again mine look similar. I know this is all pointless until I prove it, but I would never sell an animal I have not proven out. I have just been trying to gather opinions. I cannot tell yet if she is dominant or recessive but I know she is carrying an extra gene. That last picture was a sulfur mojave? I can see where you are coming from on that one, but she looks nothing like the Sutherland's cross. There is a huge variance within this leucistic gene pool and it seems new snakes every day end up making white supers. What I have gathered over the years working for Brian Potter and then going out on my own is that all of these leucistic snakes throw a similar feel in their pattern and genetic markers. This one screams leucistic to me, but I could be wrong.
