Say for example that when the Snow Boa was created (AnerytheristicAmelanistic) that for some reason as it aged it started getting red coloration in the pattern, I would ask the same question....How could it truely be an AnerytheristicAmelanistic specimen? How could it truely be Anerytheristic if its showing red pigment? Thats my question for the Axanthics, why do they gain yellow pigment? If axanthic means lacking yellow?

When looking at the Snow Ball (AxanthicAmelanistic) as it ages it does the same thing the Snow Boa does, it starts gaining yellow pigment....how? Why? if its a true Axanthic it should gain yellow pigment...just like a Snow Boa shouldn't have Red Pigment right? So how are Snow Ball Pythons truely Axanthic Amelanistic Homozygous specimens?
