Pic of new leo. What type of Albino/Morph?...

mmfrankford Aug 08, 2004 09:38 PM

I don't normally purchase animals from Petsmart, but couldn't pass this fella up. I'm thinking he's definitely an albino, but what type? His colors are bright and there is a tiny bit of orange on the tail.He must not have been living for very long at the store, he's nice and fat.The only thing that does suck was the price.So please don't comment on that, I'm already feeling guilty.
Thanks for looking.

This pic is the same animal, I just combined two pics showing different views. No color editing.

That looks like a rainwater(las vegas) albino i have a baby female. but im not sure. im not that good at identafying albinos. but im pritty sure its a rainwater.

Agreed. They look like RWs and the pink in the eye helps to confirm that. A tremper or a bell would be a lot darker in the pinkish color on the body.

The colors, the eyes, and the fact that it came from Petsmart says Tremper to me.

Upon further review I now have to agree that they are tremper. I stand corrected and promise to give myself a beating for the error The picture just makes it look so damn light...Shows how many albinos I have!

PS. I only have 1 tremper and 3 RWs (1 baby)
