Hi, i recently purchased 2 baby axanthic kings, ive seen adults and some are whiter than others and thats what i was hoping mine turn out to be when they get older.

MY QUESTION IS will my adults be very white or is there a certain morph or certain kind of axanthic i need to purchase or is it just luck??

i don't know about white... but axanthics do turn blue-ish purple... the black and white axanthics look just like black and white florida kings, i've yet to see a white axanthic (it is possible though!)

Both the new england and lemke lines get pretty blue, the new england line has more of a reduced pattern than the lemke line.

personally i think the NE line is the best looking... if you don't know what line your snakes are, all u can do i wait till they are adults... you can post pix so some of the Floridana Morphs specialist can give you an idea

ok see the 3rd pic you posted? thats the color im talking about! whiteish with black specks.

Same snake in all 3 pix

the "white" color is really Blue-ish-Purple... like i said not knowing the origin of your axanthic, all u can do is wait till it's an adult
