It occurred to me the other day that I've really warmed up to Albinos. When I was first looking into BPs in high school I really didn't care for them. But show me a picture of a black pastel albino now and I'm completely sold (in spirit, my own plans call for a black pastel het albino and spider het albino). My question pertains to high contrast vs normal albinos though, are there any official "lines" for plane jane albinos or have people been taking a nice albino to nice albino and hoping the offspring will duplicate? Most albino hatchlings I see could be "high contrast" but with maturity loose some or all of that sharpness. Are there any definite markers, or colors you look for? It seems a lot of the advertised high contrast are a bit darker orange than sunshine yellow.
Or is high contrast a sales term for particularly nice looking hatchlings? That was my other suspicion, but I'm pretty unfamiliar with albinos in general. Just love those dark morphs mixed in though, seems to make the albino gene really pop. If you've got an adult albino that would be considered high contrast post a few pics!
