Comparison between patternless albinos?

jesseter May 21, 2003 08:56 PM

Has anyone bred Bell Patternless Albinos yet? How are the colors compared to a Vegas Patternless Albino? Pictures would be cool!!

Last I heard no Bell Patternless Albinos have been produced. It might not even be possible. I believe the Bell's them selves have been trying without success. There is also debate over the possibility of the Tremper patternless albinos with skeptics saying they might actually be rainwater patternless albinos. I guess we'll see.

I'm hoping to have an answer to your question a year from now. I'm wondering if the Blizzards are much more compatible than Patternless. I'd love to find some blizzard's het for Bell for sale soon.

If I remember right the Bells have tried using both their own albino "strain" as well as Tremper's and so far have only had luck with the Tremper "strain". Even with using Trempers, only a few "blazzings" were produced. Hey, it can't hurt to try, I am! The worst you can get out of it is some nice normal looking geckos.

The information I have from a very reliable source says that Mark Bell produced blazing blizzards using the Bell albino strain he developed, not the Tremper strain. That makes sense since the eyes of a Bell also have more red than those of a Tremper which may be why it is the Bell that produces that trait in the blazing blizzard.

Unless you talked to the Bells yourself, you might want to recheck your source on that one. I am 100 % positive that the Tremper "strain" was used. As for the photos, ever hear of editing software? Prehistoric Pets is well known for digital manipulation with its photographs.
Thanks
