I do wonder if perhaps "Blaze" is presenting both hypomelanism AND hypererythrism?



Might explain some of the unexpected inconsistencies coupled with the normal natural variation in AK's. The weird skeletor head pattern like the one on my male if you look closely enough has darker orange/brown where there should/would be the usual black markings.



What also makes me question it just being hypomelanism instead of hypererythrism is the eyes, the irises are red/orange in all the Blazes I've seen. Admittedly a low sample size but has been consistent through all the babies I've produced and the ones my buddy brought in that I picked mine from originally.
