    Albino Ultramel
    I just stumbled across this beauty on Morphmarket, I believe it's a worlds first! And for me it's totally unexpected for the combo of Albino and Ultramel, it almost looks like a Super Fire with a lot more pattern, and just look at that crazy head stamp. It's probably the best Ultramel combo I've ever seen. I've been considering picking up an Ultramel to get into the project, after seeing this I may go for the same combo. Totally awesome!!

    No, they want $3,000 for her LOL. I just thought she was really cool.

    She is nice looking for sure. Love her pattern and contrast. I wonder what she will look like grown?

    I'm loving that! Albino is underrated and I think has a lot of untapped potential left in it. Same goes for ultramel.

    That's an awesome looking BP, and I'm not a fan of albino.

    That looks nothing like I thought it would, but I dig it.

    I have to question the ID on this animal... I know that Candy Ultramel was made in the UK a few years back and it did not have any of the pattern disruption that animal has...

    Also... Why is this literal one-of-a-kind, double recessive animal priced lower than Dreamsicle or LASnows (both of which have been around for nearly a decade)?

    It's not what I expected either, much better than what I imagined. And the price is about 3x lower than it should be, a double recessive like this is a 10 year project, usually the first ones that come out sell for about $10,000.

    I agree and I don't expect the next albino ultramel to look like that... there is something else going on in that snake albino dose not chance the pattern like that...

    Exactly! The Candy Ultramel had a perfectly normal pattern and since Albino and Candy are the same gene there is no reason Albino Ultramel should have a complete and total pattern disruption like that.

    Would a lavender albino look like like this with ultramel?

    I'm in the process of making a 6 reccesive gene visual and Lavender Albino x ultramel is one of the pairings is this from a caramel albino, regular albino or a lavender albino?

    I think in the intervening years that it has been pretty well accepted that this animal was not correctly labeled

    A Lav Ultramel would end up looking like an incredibly pale/washed out Lav.

    Hard to say for sure. Perhaps something like Sandblast is responsible for the bizarre broken up look to the side pattern and is able to react to something in this animal even without het Pied. Looking at the breeder's available BPs, nothing is really giving me a clue as to what is possibly in this animal other than Albino. Maybe it really is what it's labeled and Ultramel really does react that way to Albino? I can't find a single other instance of Albino Ultramel, or even Candy or Lavender Ultramels so it's hard to know.

    Same here until I hatched my first albino ghi. If you get the right morph with a interesting pattern then it really can be quite unique. Also kind of cool are ones that introduce a lot of yellow like my ghi's mother an albino spider.
