I suspect your breeder was being contientious and couldn't absolutely prove they were 100% Applegate Albinos. I have a pair I'm working with now that I have to treat the babies the same way, eventhough the mother is an Applegate.

The link below shows the babies this pair has produced and as neonates I could have sold them off as Applegates 'cause the mom is and they sure look like Applegates but as they grew they turned more "yellow". They are beautiful but now I'm wondering if the dad's influence was Bechtel albino as they look more like Bechtels as they age. I'll be able to do breeding trials this year or next and should see some neat offspring. But at this point, I'm thinking my Snow dad has Bechtel albino in him.
