Fantastic colors! Is the leopard a line bred or simple genetic trait? Its pretty cool

Best,

Natural Selection Reptiles

I'm not sure yet Vinny.. I had 4 of them, pop up in my Nuclear albino project litter... Nuclear albinos are being produced from Hets I produced from crossing my Nuclears with nice Bell Albinos that of course have likely been outbred to who knows what.. I have only produced two Nuclear albinos which are as I hoped high orange albinos, but 4 of these nice orange highly spotted things popped out of the het to het litter... I suspect its Dodoma influence probably from whatever is in the Bell Albinos I got.
I think the founder strains influence many of the strange mixes we get.. Its also why albinos vary so much..

The Bell albino being an Egyptian originally, still dulls many albinos, while crosses with Dodoma or other Tanzanian strains is producing brighter orange albinos... These widely spaced ocelli combined with the Nuclear orange on the Leopards is probably Dodoma genes, somewhere in the mix... I have a male and 3 females like that so I will grow them up and see if they breed true..

If the Bells produced that Albino then there is probably no dodoma blood in it. I've spoken with their snake manager ad nauseum about Kenyans and they are not fans of the dodoma line and don't mess with it.
