What kind of Albino Leopards are these???

DavidKendrick Jan 08, 2005 01:00 AM

I have seen many albinos, Alot of the albinos out on the market seem really dark. I know there are many different lines, Las vegas, Bell, Tremper, Ect. ect. I was wondering these albinos seem really light, and I was wondering if there where T positive and T negative albinos, Or what??? What kind would you say these are?

They all look like Trempers to me. The pattern on Trempers can range from white to deep chocolate brown. Whether the pattern is light or dark is dependent on both breeding and temperature. Trempers incubated at low temperatures or exposed to low temperatures will hatch out dark or darken. Selective breeding has produced Trempers that "brown out" to a lesser degree when cooled. All three strains of albino (Tremper, Bell and Rianwater) are T positive.
