Leucistic question

Hi, just wondering, does the leucistic gene swallow up other genetics? For example, is it possible to have a leucistic spider? Or would it just be an animal that looks like a leucistic with the possibility of producing spiders as well? Thanks

if what we call leucistic is truely leucistic, then it will always be a pure white snake (no pigment at all) . but a super mojave isn't a true leucistic and i've seen some mojavexlesser yellow out so their not true leucistic. so you might be able to get a pattern out of them, i doubt it tho.

and who knows mayb the spider gene will do something crazy with the leucistic genes, donno until you try, we've had surprises before.

but honestly, i would think your not gonna see any spider what so ever.
