Well, the coral ghost there is pretty, but it certainly doesn't have anything to do with the anery issue since it obviously has TONS of red pigment and involves a not much understood "strawberry" gene as well. But who knows, maybe even some of the normal anery corns aren't really even completely anerythristic, since you wouldn't be aware of a pink casting in a dark black and gray snake anyway. Maybe that is why some snows are pinker than others, because the gene can void all or leave tiny amounts for different reasons. I just don't think anyone knows all about this, and may never quite frankly(shrug).
All I know is that by definition, an anery should not have ANY, and if they do, it would be more accurately be an extreme form of hypoerythrism(reduction of red).
Some very true anery animals are stark black, gray, and white, and those are what I would consider truly anerythristic, but it might take the productions of snows to actually prove this beyond the shadow of a doubt to. But this is just my opinion of course, and I certainly don't proposing a decades old renaming of all this stuff..LOL!
