    what's in a name
    I was looking at different ads on KS classified and am frequently seeing names of morphs, I have never seen before. Just today I saw an ad for "Black Belly, Toffino, and yellow jacket. for example. Are these actually new morphs or are they the name someone has tagged their line of another known morph?

    Those are legit. I've heard of them before and I'm not all that up on the lingo.

    Here is a thread on yellow jacket which is apparently black belly with pastel:

    Not sure why there aren't more of them around.

    Toffino is the combination of the original albino mutation with what is now known to be an allele (different mutation of the same gene) mutation toffee. My understanding is that both toffee and toffino look like albinos at hatchling but then start to change to the adult toffee look with size.

    Thanks for the info. The Yellow Jacket is really something. I'm surprised you don't see more about them or the black belly
