Excluding the locality variants (Suphans, formosa, etc.), I believe there to be Albinos (which display alot of variation), Sunsets (which I know nothing about) - these may be different than a normal Albino ? - I've never seen any animals from this bloodline in person. Calicos (which are prob. not genetic because most Calico-type mutants are not) - these are sometimes referred to as Piebalds but Pieds do not have the normal patterning found in wild-type specimens. I have seen photos of animals that appeared to be Hypomelanistic but could not track down the person who purchased them. I am also working to prove out an Axanthic mutation I have produced Dbl. Hets. from. Then there are Leucistics. Who knows what they are? I would have to see Hets. to see if they had the Monocled Pattern before I believed they were Monocleds......
