I thought sunglow corns were a very deep orange/red and no white. However I see a lot of albino corns with no white and light bright orange being called sunglows. It almost seems like if an albino has white it is called a reverse Okeetee and if it does not have white borders it is called a sunglow (thus eliminating the normal albino). Is there a commonly held "rule" for what makes an amel a sunglow and not just a normal albino?

By the way, I am aware that a sunglow is just a selectivly bred albino.

A sunglow is widely accepted as a selectively bred amel with no white and amels with no white tend to be brighter in color and seem to "glow", a sunglow can also be a double homozygous Hypo amel. My sunglow motley is the hypo amel kind, he's pictured. The lack of normal amels these days is due to marketing and people wanting to make the amels easier to sell.

I think it is mostly marketing.I have both normal amel mots(with no white) and sunglow mots and cant tell any real difference.But people will come over to my house see the sunglow label on a shoebox and say "hey thats a hot looking corn".
I also have corns homo. for both hypo and amel that look nothing like the sunglow line.they are screaming orange with a very light orange background. for whater thats worth
