Albino High/Low Contrast

I absolutely love Albinos, and would love to add one to my collection, but had a question for you all that has been bugging me:

I constantly see Albinos advertised as "high contrast." What defines a high contrast albino? My ideal albino would be almost white, with the yellows being extremely light and more like clouds, lacking the alien pattern even. Would this be "low contrast?" I may be totally off...

Pictures always help! Maybe an example of a high contrast vs. a normal or low contrast? :gj::snake::gj::snake::gj:

A high contrast is going to be very, very bright yellow - but they do change as they mature, so it can be hard to really label them. The deeper the orange as a baby - the more bright sharp yellow they'll be as adults.

Sounds like you're also looking for a reduced pattern one as well.

Here's my boy - reduced pattern, but time will tell if he'll truly be "high contrast".

I think I know the soft yellow that you are referring to though.

I think the oranges-and-white ones turn yellow over time. Brighter yellow for brighter orange, but I don't think the orange really lasts?

But yeah, you want a low contrast one. I'm surprised they aren't more popular--they're ideal for snow projects, too! I'm so-so on the higher contrast albinos, but I do like it when the blushing bleeds into the white areas as they age.

I don't know what it is about the orange ones lol. They just stand out more then the yellow and white ones to me. I like em all tho

I love HC albinos!!

Here is my little female

Below a picture of two albino brothers from the same clutch, on the left, is super sharp high contrast, oranges outlining bright yellows. His brother on the right is a bit faded and no oranges outlines on the yellows. Same mother and father, very different end results.

Albinos are sweet plus they make some great combo morphs. Now I'm really debating getting the albino breeding program underway...
