No, we are not on the same page. Both leucistic and albino are phenotypes, not genotypes. You seem to think that one gene accounts for a snake being albino. Sorry, but that is not the case. If these snakes are anything like corns, there are genes that control each color found on them. Since there are white sided black rats (not wild yet not fully leucistic) there must multiple alleles for the black coloring, or incomplete dominance going on. Since some Black Rats are brown, there may still be even more genes involved.

I may not know the answers, but I do know what the questions look like.
