Congrats Tom, that is a great looking clutch. My first thought when I looked at the pic was that I saw 2 snows and 1 albino, in fact I had to go back up and re-read your post to see what your count was. Not positive, but maybe it is in fact a snow, but the effect of the axanthics genes are not quite as complete in that snake as in the other snow at getting rid of the yellow pattern, or is it possible that it is an albino het axanthic and the single copy of axanthic is having a reduction effect? I'm certainly not the expert, just posing questions, maybe the same ones you are right now,lol. There is one sure way to find out, breed it, but I bet you would like to know before that time, I'm sure someone probably has a definate answer out there and will chime in. Either way thats a very nice mixed variety clutch to be proud of, congrats again.
