Sugar question

Do sugars develop more White as they get older?

I am not an expert, but I'm sure someone will jump in. I do believe that as they get larger they "develop" More white I don't know if it is due to scales gettin larger or if more white scales form. I know the one I have seems to be getting more white.

idk about developing more white as they grow, i have no experience with them, but from what ive read here, the amount of white varies how it does with pieds, some are low, and some are high etc.

Yes, the pink scales they have as babies tend to turn white as they shed. Mine definitely has a lot more white than she did as a baby (she's now a breeding size adult).

Like pied's the white they are born with is all they'll ever have..now it starts off as a pinkish color and like pieds get whiter as they age but no a Low white will not develop in to a high white..

I think you and I are saying the same thing but you said it better. They start off pink and turn white but to your point, the pink they are born with is the extent of how much white they will have. You won't see the black turning white for example. This is definitely one of my favorite morphs and working on a project with mine for the first time this year.

Should also be noted that like pieds they can have different amounts of expression. Some will have a lot of white, some not so much. Each is capable of producing the other.
