I think it's what most people might consider to be a "snow".

That's a sweet looking snow you got there. I wouldn't mind having it.

A snow is an Anery(reduced red), correct? Or are there more genes at play?

If "snow" is a simple recessive trait, then yes you should get a percentage of snow offspring by breeding dad back to his daughters. Just make sure the females are old and big enough to be bred by him.

That is an awesome looking pictus. The first I've seen that looks like that. I've seen a couple others that are called 'snow.' But they don't look quite like this. It would be really cool to have one like this. If you try to breed more of these, then good luck! That'd be awesome. If anyone has any links to others they've seen that look similar to this, I'd definitely like to see them, as I can't find much at all.
