In order to produce an all white snow Boa, that does not develop any yellow, that would actually be called a "Blizzard". Not the blizzards or het blizzards that people have been breeding and selling for years, because nobody has ever proven any Boa to be axanthic yet.

An all white snow, devoid of all yellow, if that yellow was the result of a single gene mutation would be Albino, Anerythristic and Axanthic.

My understanding is that the Ball Python Axanthics are actually not truly axanthic either. I could certainly be wrong about this because I know as much about Ball Pythons as I do Barbie dolls. But if there is any yellow, it does not truly meet with the definition of axanthic. Reduced yellow? Sure. Devoid of yellow? I don't know about that.
