blazing blizzards

What do you cross to produce blazing blizzards.I have been raising & breeding blizzards for some time and I was wondering if they have any ties to each other?

Blazing blizzards are Albino blizzards. Most common are the tremper, but I know a few people have produced bell and RW's as well.

the breeders i know of are prehistoric pets (i think theirs are tremper strain), e2 (not sure what strain), and crested gecko (las vegas/rainwater strain).

Those are the only ones I have heard of also but Brian sounds as if he knows of quite a few. I honestly didn't think the one Prehistoric had looked all that great... it was greyish, I like my blizzards more on the whiter or even pinkish side.

oh, i think the grey could easily be the result of a mood/lighting thing. i don't have any blizzards, but i've heard that they change shade with temperature & mood (much more so than other geckoes, or that, at least, it's much more obvious). plus, with these first few blazing blizzards, they were breeding in mass quantity, just to increase the probability of a very rare genetic crossover event, in just the right place. so, once they have enough, they can start breeding more selectively for pinkness and less yellow.

oh, i forgot, i saw that VMS herps has a blazing blizzard as well.
