Frank,
You should know me better than that by now. No, I am not looking to fight with you at all. Just making the point that you can not have the same outcome with your axanthic kennerlyi as I will breeding 2 arctics together. You will also not be able to make axanthic kennerlyi if you breed a visual to a normal. However, if you breed an arctic to a normal, statistically, you will get half a clutch of normals and half a clutch of arctics. When you breed arctic to arctic, you get 25% normals,50% arctics, and 25% super arctics.

And the other point was, you can not compare the animals you find in the field with the arctics because of the fact that the arctics are a genetic mutation that is reliably reproducible and can be calculated on the punnett square. The same can not be said for wild type variation or polygenic trait like red and green coloration which are commonly found in the field.

With that, here are some greens and reds for you to check out. Yep, there are some of us who do still have the real deal...
