Not even sure where to start with this one...
First of all, lavender is a simple recessive trait and is a form of albinism. There is a specific gene mutation and it does look slightly different from a regular albino. As with most morphs and common names, nothing is ever written in stone. People call snakes whatever they want. Lots of albinos are labeled as lavender, because well, thats what color they are. I have even seen hypos advertised as lavender. People can be pretty dumb about this stuff. Also, within true lavs there is variation, just like within regular albinos. Do your homework if you want to buy snakes that are compatible
