well written Troy!

We have just limited experience with Evans Amels, but for all I can see (in pictures too) the Toffee Bellies have a slightly darker look with more contrast. ALL Toffee Bellies have the black spots all over the body...in a variing amount...but in hatchlings the spots are most obvious on the belly. I would not call the spots "paradox", because they are part of the mutation and not out of ordenary



I know that the few black spots would fit the definition for "hypo melanism", but the Toffees have traits of T plus amelanism too. So this rules out the hypo for me. Otherwise you would need to call the Banana / Coral Glow Ballpython a hypo too

as for the transparency in the Toffee eggs...like Troy did say...some do it and others dont
