Sugars and calicos ?

JLSReptiles2011 Jul 27, 2010 04:48 PM

Just wondering if calicos and sugars are the same? I have seen pics of pastel sugars and pastel calicos and thought they looked alot alike. I know there are descrepancies about lessers and butters and also black pastels and cinnamons. Just wondering if there was the same with calicos and sugars. Thanks for any responses

from what i gather, they are different lines for the same morph.

Wide varying opinions on this one...
One constant is that sugars are also black backs. I`ve produced 13 sugars and pastel sugars this season and they are all black backs of various degrees.
I was originally told this by the Sutherlands and its proven to be true in my experience.
