~~~ Also, very rarely do I get one that has just one blue eye. Also, the more white the dragon lacks, especially if it is a colored dragon, the more intense the color underneath is. Some of these dragons look almost neon, because they have no white to wash out the color. I hope this helps out with your question.~~~~
In my opinion this ads to the theory this morph is a variable form of T positive albinism. Josh, do you see the color intensity your talking about moreso in the red coloration than the other colors as far as it showing more intensly than the others do when the "super", as you call it, form is present?
This is why I never understood the theory of breeding white hypomelanistic dragons into the translucents. All I ever seen were white dragons. The chance of producing a completely clear dragon would be slim to none and the hypomelanistic gene that produces whiter dragons, drops the color (most generally)so you are left with a dragon that lacks most color if not all, is white, with a few translucent markings if any (and of course the variables of the two genes.)..... It would make more sense to breed in the hypo-pastel lines that were more color retentive and try to hit on a dropped white with higher color. I feel like a completely colorless translucent would never survive or thrive properly if it did survive, anyway.
Just something to chew on... Any feedback would be great.
