Baby Snow eastern pic

These were a surprise this year. Got 2 seperate litters of them, one was from a melanistic that ended up being het snow that was bred to a snow. The other is from a Schuett albino that also ended up being het snow bred to a double het flame/albino which very surprisingly turned out to be het snow. The latter's brood's babies are 50% possible het for the albino flame trait.

Jeff,

Unfortunately I didn't take group shots of those two litters.
They are pretty cool looking, I like the dark pinkish/purple color that they grow up and turn into.

I was just wondering if there was any visual variance between the two litters with the flame mixed in the one?

Jeff,

Good questions, need to take a closer looksee at them, will do so tonight and let you guys know. Would be cool to have red or orange snows, like the orange leucistic (bottom pic). I had bred a flame to the original leucistic female, which produced double het flame/leucistics. Bred these together and all the leucistic babies were white at birth. As they grew, they began to show varying amounts of orange color, the one being the orangest of the brood.

The top 2 pics are siblings to the orange leucistic, almost like a sherbert leucistic lol.
