    Litter #4 born- with a few surprises

    Litter #4 April 14, was an even bigger surprise, this was a cross between my other female het Xmas albino x the male Iowa snow, I always only breed one male to one female so I know this is true. It was expected to produce 50% xmas albinos and 50% double het snow normals, because the Iowa albino and Xmas are compatible, but instead produced 2 snows, 2 Xmas albinos, 1 Nebraska albino, 2 anerythristics, and 2 normals. Which proves that the het Xmas female is also het for anerythristic and Nebraska albino, and also that the male Iowa snow is also het for Nebraska albino, this litter could have even produced a Nebraska snow as well. This is not unlikely due to the fact that they were possible hets for Nebraska snow as well. What a bonus, thanks Scott, and nice variety litter, definately a keeper female, she's not much to look at, just a plain normal looking radix, but she sure can throw a variety pack.

    The anerythristics plains like the one in the bottom right are very jet black especially the head, however they do still actually show some checkering pattern. They are not solid black like the melanistic wanderings or even as solid black as the eastern melanistics (with the white chin)
