Okay, now that I look at yours again Tom, I do see the lavender-ish markings that take place of the black markings you typically see in the "normal" floridanas. Some more pics of that beaut would be highly appreciated if possible



Kinglvr,

I think you are confusing what you call a "normal" floridanas with a hypo. The hyponmelanistic floridana has been around for a while and is so common people mistake them for what a normal Florida king looks like.



The difference between the PB and hypos are many. One thing I notcied early on is the black markings on a hypo are black and the areas that are supposed to be black on a PB are a lavender color. Its like someone took a phote of a lavender and a hypo and suprimposed them over each other.



This year my hunches of the lavender color on the Peanut Butters came to new discoveries. I bred a T negative albino to a PB and got a new type of reccessive gene instead of normal double hets. This means the PB is related or is a "type" of albino.
