Just subtle variations of patterning,Like youre saying with the stretching.Although i have to say i have saw patterns blur with age instead of being the nice crisp outlined pattern as a youngster.Pics are a good way of distincting between some differences but again its not a guarantee that it will always be the same.The only surefire way of guaranteeing anything with a little better certainty is for the seller to be as honest as possible and represent their animals for what they are and not what they "think they are".Thats the problem with the herp world now is the fact that everyone thinks they have something super special when all it is is a normal animal not a het for anything.



Now if by chance you have 2 animals,1 being albino,and the other normal then say what they are when you sell them and not what you think they should be.Second guessing the whole genetics to anything is plain absurd.If you DONT know for sure what you have then sell them as normal not as chocolate dalmation or butterscotch albino.Honesty will get you places where lying will get you hurt.
