Butter and lesser are the same gene but two different lines so it is not advisable to cross them. The offspring occasionally get "bug eyes". I would go with mojave x (lesser or butter) to make a white snake.

Thank you for answering all my questions. I have been doing my research to prepare myself for the next step. But I have found that no matter how much studying I do nothing beats knowledge you can obtain from people with experience.

No problem. After you are on the board for awhile you will figure out who to ask about what. All of us working at least slightly different things. I deal primarily with BEL's, Albino's, Lavender Albino's, Enchis and Gravels. Some on here are working some higher end genes most of which I have stayed away from other than Gravel.
