But nothing can beat a banana hatchling at impulse sales lol. Sadly most do know know that they change so much as they grow.
Are the albinos allylic with lavender albinos? The double hey may produce a visual. I know the candy is compatible with albino so I would think lavender albino would be also.

This is a great thread highlighting differences in albino and lavender albino. Allellic or not Allellic? Questions answered.

Albino and Lavender
Hello there,
I'm sure this question has been asked many, many times (yet I couldn't find an answer). But, is there a genetic difference between albino and lavender albino?
Say I breed a lav albino and an albino. will all babies be normals but with het albino/lav albino, or will they combine?
If it's a genetic difference and the genes don't mix like that, then I'm truly intrigued as to how these two genes separated like this.
Thanks.

They are not the same and are not compatible so if you were to breed Lavender to Albino you would get some Double Hets, by breeding those double hets you would have 1/16 chance to produce a Double Recessive however will it be different or easily idenfiable it not likely.

There are numerous locations where a spontaneous mutation can occur, causing the disruption of one step in the melanin production process and resulting in an albino snake.
The albino and lavender albino genes are located on different alleles, therefore if bred together the offspring will still have one working melanin production gene at both alleles.
For example, Albino and Candy are located on the same allele, therefore breeding them together will produce an intermediate form of albinism known as a candino.
When breeding an Albino to a Lavender Albino each parent passes on one copy of their different albino gene and one normal gene for the opposing form of albino.
A lavender albino has 2 normal alleles for albino; an albino has 2 normal alleles for lavenderalbino.
Producing visual/ double homologous lavender albino albinos would likely be an waste of time/ resources, only resulting in an albino looking animal with a possible pattern influence from the lavender trait, as the albino gene's inability to produce blue pigment would likely dominate the lavender albino genes colors, and at the end of the day there are much more rewarding double het projects.

As a point of clarification:
Alleles are different versions of the same gene. So Albino and Candy are alleles which is why they are compatible and make the heteroallelic Candino
Albino and Lav are two completely different, unrelated genes. Because of this, they are not alleles
