White Leo Morph Question

[Kelentari]

Ok, so I'm on the hunt for a solid white gecko with black eyes. What I'm wondering atm is: What's the difference between a Snow Blizzard %100 het Blazing (Tremper Albino) with solid eclipse eyes and an Albino Mack Super Snow? I'm guessing that Blizzard and Albino are two different strains or something, but which is the higher quality animal (or more specifically, which will stay the whitest as it matures)? I'm leaning toward the Super Snow, but I thought I'd throw my question out here, anyway.

Hey there,

Hhmm, difficult question!! If your looking for a pure white leo, you could also consider a Diablo blanco (Spanish for "white devil") But DB's don't have black eyes though. They have ruby eyes or snake eyes....
But still a beautifull, solid white, leo!!
Guess that really diddn't help you at all....sorry!!:sorry:

Haha, yes, but remember how we already discussed those in another one of my threads? The whole too much expense and meanieness of them? ;-):coverlaugh: *sigh

Black eyes are cool, too, eh? And who knows, maybe the price will go down someday on the diablos and I'll be able to find a sweet one to be my black-eyed's best buddy! :blushing: (Oy, I'm talking like I already have one).

All of the various "white" morphs can contain various amount of yellow. The DB is probably closest to being pure white. A super snow blizzard would probably end up more white than an albino super snow. But again, there is variability from one animal to the next in both. So, much would depend on the particular animal that you choose. And you can be sure that the more "pure" white it is, the more expensive it'll be.

Ah, but the one I'm wondering about is called just "Snow," no "Super" attached. Does that make a difference? Or is it mislabelled since it has black eyes? Oy--also the blizzard snow is less expensive than the albino super snow. Right now the blizzard looks whiter, but I am comparing a 2.5-mo.-old to an 11-day-old, respectively. My brain hurts...:shock:

Oh, and thank you for your response, Ethan, even if you decide to not respond to the mess I just typed up there.

Hi, hi, hi, your right!! Sometimes I'm a bit like Dorey (from Finding nemo)....
Seems I suffer from short term memory loss!! :coverlaugh::coverlaugh::coverlaugh:
I was thinking; if you use a small amount off white paint, you will probably have the most white looking leo ever!!:rofl:
I'm just kidding, off course:biggrin:

That's it! Now, where to find leo-safe paint...hmm...:coverlaugh:
