These pics were just taken today, right before he/she shed the skin on the tail. I was told it was just an albino, but it looked different than the other albinos for sale. I looked online and in books and to me it looks like this one may be a patternless. Am I right? If not, any other ideas? Thanks.

Oh, and to get an idea of how tiny this one is, the green cap is a sierra mist cap and the orange one is a gatorade cap! This baby is teeny!

AWW! It reminds me of baby GiGi. =D

It's a patternless. for SURE.

If they're slightly red eyes, then it's a Patternless Albino. If it's got dark blackish brown eyes, with red veins, it's a Las Vegas Patternless Albino/Rainwater Patternless Albino. It goes by both names.

=DD I have a LVPA! Lol. I hope you have a LVPA. =D

My Money's on a Patternless Albino, rainwater strain. It's got the coloring exactly like my girl when she was a baby. =D

She looks really dark in the second one, but she was just cold. Lol.

Aww, he/she does look like baby Gigi! That would be cool if mine turned out to look like the infamous Gigi :) Lol. Haven't really gotten a chance to look at the eyes. The little one hates being held so I try not to scare him by holding him too much.
I was pretty sure that it was some type of patternless, just wasn't sure what kind. Lol.

GiGi's eyes were nearly SOLID black for a good four months. =] In certain lighting, you could vaguely see the red veins. So don't be surprised if they look solid black at a glance.

If you have a male. I want him next summer. BABIIIESSSS. hahahaha. W could become in-laws. ;]

Haha, we could probably work something out ;) I have this weird feeling it is a boy, but it is obviously too early to tell. Just like a gut feeling type of thing.

The eyes look like they are black, but when I put him near the light and his pupils shrink, they look more like they are a brownish color with red veins. The eyes are so tiny its hard to tell though! Lol.

YAY! Then it's a LVPA!!! =D That's like GiGi's.

Do they look like this?

But darker brown. Since she/he's still a baby.

As for the gut feeling, I could of BET MY LIFE GiGi was a boy. Lol. I really didn't care if it was a boy or girl. But I named "him" Gustavo. "he" was Baby Gus for the first five months of "his" life. Lol. Now it's Giovanna aka Little Mama/GiGi.

Yes, that's exactly what they look like! They aren't too much darker than that though. Just a tiny bit. So I have a LVPA for sure then? Wow, that was easy... lol. Do you have any more pics of Gigi so I can see what mine might look like as an adult? Thanks.

I know. I love her color! I took the ones with dark blue background today. She just shed. So I figured photo shoot. Lol.

Dark blue, deep red/burgundy, and black bring out her yellow intensity. When she's up against beige she blends in. hah.

Now lets just hope yours is a boy! =D

I googled juvie leos and found a pic of a rainwater that looks just like the pics of my baby and baby Gigi. So I am almost positive that's what mine is :) And cute thread of Gigi, btw.

Thanks. I'm 100% sure she/he's a LVPA. =D

When I was trying to find out what GiGi was, no one could help me. Lol. Because no one had one on this board. So they didn't know what her eyes looked like, or her pattering, etc. They could only tell me patternless.

From patternless, you could get-
LVPA
Tremper patternless
tremper patternless albino
murphy's patternless
etc.

So I had to do LOTS of research, myself. Lol.

If the eyes match up almost exact, just a shade darker for his/her's age, then it's a rainwater. You can see the albino strain in their eyes. =D

Yeah. They're the same thing. =] I like calling it LVPA. It's easier to type. But when I say what she is I use rainwater.

ooo if it's a boy we'll have tons of pretty babies. Lol. I'm thinking about breeding her with a Mack Snow this summer to get Mack snow las vegas patternless albinos. (Basically GiGi but baby yellow coloring).

Are LVPA's a sought-after morph? I would like to breed some of my guys eventually. I have two blizzards and the LVPA. I also have a normal but she is too told to breed anyways.
