    Please show a "White Wedding" that has any change in color at all.

    I suppose I should have clarified to 'Leucistic' snakes because pied white is pure white.

    some are basically like "het for awesome".

    Or add hypo! Obviously I'm biased toward axanthic, but I do think there are certain combos that it really works beautifully with like the true ghost, especially when a pattern morph is put in on top of it. Loved your "het for awesome" comment!

    I wasn't really impressed with hypos when I first saw them, I couldn't understand why someone would want a snake that looked like it's always in shed. But in combination with genes that increase yellows or lighten colors, they really do seem to improve with age. I recently saw a juvenile lesser enchi hypo that absolutely blew me away (as did her price tag lol).
