So who's white Diamond?? haha j/k.. But who made up that name though for real.
I know that mojave, butter, lesser, and fires create Leucies.
So now Im learning that there are normals that create Leucies too??
Please correct me if Im wrong about that.
This is one of the snakes that is het Leucy but isn't any morph I don't think.

They aren't Normal...
They are subtle morphs. But they are NOT Normal.
Just like Yellowbellies are not Normals...
Vin Russo made the name White Diamond. Vin Russo made the Het Russos.
Vin Russo is a BP Breeder, and was the first to come up with the morph.
Respect...

Well... considering it is a morph name, it isn't all that stupid...

No...
Het Russos are the name of the morph that has a SUPER form, that is the White Diamond, which if you consider it, can be called the Russo as well.
Het Russos are the ones you are calling "Normal".
They are not Normal. They are a morph, called "Het Russos"

Re: what is het Russo & white diamond?
So that means it is one snake with two names.. White Diamond=Russo. Russo = White diamond.. Correct?
How does a WD=Russo look like? Is it like a Leucy from fire x fire(black eyes), or Blue eyes?

Here is the problem with that.
No one calls the Supers "Russos"
They are just called "White Diamonds"
Het Russo x Het Russo = White Diamond.
TECHNICALLY, you could call it a Russo... Or a Russo line Leucistic.
THAT is the only time someone calls it a Russo... when it is called a Russo line Leucistic aka White Diamond.
And it is a solid white blue eyed snake.
Check the link that LK posted.

Breeder= Vin Russo
Heterozygous expression of the trait= Russo (line) Het Leucistic
Homozygous expression of the trait= White Diamond (BEL)

HET RUSSO
A CO-DOM mutation called the 'Lemon Ball' that is just lightly colored, with a normal pattern and a clear belly. (like a fire almost). It is not a normal, but would take an experianced eye to be able to tell that it is in fact a morph.
http://www.cuttingedgeherp.com/nss-f...icYearling.jpg
WHITE DIAMOND
The SUPER FORM of two HET RUSSO's (Lemon balls) of a white snake with the Blue Eyed Lucy complex.
http://www.cuttingedgeherp.com/nss-f...Luecistic1.jpg
Vin Russo is the breeders name, and he originally called them Lemons, and the supers White Diamonds. He was one of the originators of a BEL at all.
P.S. Fires create black-eyed lucys. You can cross any of the Blue Eyed Lucy 'Hets' (Mojave, Lesser, ect.) to create a white snake. There are no 'normals' that would create a BEL of any type, or it wouldn't be a normal. ;]
(Links directed to Vin Russo's page regarding his animals. Not mine, obviously. :] )
I also highly suggest you go read up on genetics, so that you won't be this confused in the future. This is a good forum link that explains things very well and clearly. This is an example of a CO-DOM mutation.
