    It's 'safer' to breed the leucistics. Less chances of genetic deformity.
    A friend of mine hatched out a few 8 balls. 2/3s of them were deformed with spinal kinks and/or abnormal faces. Some had cleft pallets and deformed jaws. They physically couldn't eat so they were culled.
    I don't know if his odds were just crappy, but if 2/3s of other Super Blacks/Cinnys had issues like his, then I could see how nobody would want to breed them in order to avoid such issues...
