The reference to the picture of Bob Clark with that large leucistic burmese is a visual close to my heart. I had that picture on my wall ever since I found it on the web in college. I'm fascinated with the research and development of genetic mutations, in large part, because of that picture. It represents the pinacle of selective breeding. It is unfortunate that specimen did not pass on its mutation, but the opportunity it back, and it cannot be allowed to burn out again.



I think it's important that breeders/owners of this mutation develop a pedigree of this mutation's family tree to help bring together cooperative breeding programs, and identify other possible mislabeled traits (such as the platinum) as its own distinct bloodline/trait.



Attached some more pics, they look a little dull because they are about to shed, but they're still beautiful to me.



Thanks,
