Leucistic is best. But I would go with the luecistic black rat instead of the texas. I have had much better experience with black rats than leucistics.

My personal opinion would be that the Texas rat would be a better value for your dollar. There's just not that much difference and you will pay more for a leucisctic ratsnake "claiming" to be a black rat. Duffy

That is why you pick up one of Don's.

I think I remember seeing something in the kingsnake classifieds about piedbald russian ratsnakes but am not sure. I do however think the pied balls are the ugliest thing ever created.
