Het Red Axanthic markers

I tried searching the forums for this, and couldn't find anything.

I've been seeing alot of ads with "Het Red Axanthic markers" in them (I'm looking for either an axanthic or red Axanthic) and was just curious, what do the het red markers look like? And do regular het axanthics have markers?

Thanks in advance!

Here ya go...just click on the Het Red Guide

Not true. Het Reds are visual morphs and they do have much more reliable markers than pieds.

Het Red Axanthics do not have "markers". They are an incomplete dominant morph.
They are the heterozygous version of a Red Axanthic.
Much the same as a Yellow Belly or Het Ivory is the heterozygous version of the Ivory.

Actually, het reds do indeed have markers. They are quite distinct from non-het-red black backs. This is the best guide to het reds I've found (well, technically, Heather Wong found and passed on to me): http://www.nextworldexotics.com/hghra.htm .
