and while i dont know why it didnt show up o shall post again.......



As far as Ron Tremper using heat to bring out the while in his animals - I say, more power to him. We would never know the potential of that gene - unless we applied HEAT to trigger that effect. Tremper albinos - white ones - are some of the most beautiful animals in existence. I think this fact is born out that most people have pretty much left LV' albino's go except in their use for PA's. You see very little market or clamor for LV albinos, while the tremper albino market remains strong. That tells me something - because marketing can only go so far. You still have to have a strong product - and white trempers are still the bee-knees of the leo hobby.



As far as temper-cooking tangs go - I have some suspicions. I have seen some 2nd hand accounts of people who have bought tangs from very reputable sources, which have gone "bad" (lots of melanin coming back) - after subjecting them to night temperature drops. That makes me SUSPECT (not prove) that some people are cooking tangs out there to take a short cut to SH's. That, in my opinion - is a different thing than temp-cooking Trempers.
