Roland, what's the point of hybridizing the Creamsicle and Leucy Texas Rat if the resulting f2 will just be pure white?
Without scale counts you won't even be able to tell the difference between a normal leucistic Texas Rat and this leucistic hybrid.
Of course there is the chance of a pink-eyed leucy, but even that is not exceptional.
I'm not saying you should abandon the project, I just think you could have chosen better combos.
Again, no offense meant, but I really dislike it when guys hybridize different species of the Pantherophis genus as they are all so similar. The resulting offspring are usually uglier (personal opinion) to the pure animals.
I'd rather cross these to Milks or Kings to get somthing unusual.
