Got it a few weeks back. Before its banding started to fade it was a real eye catcher (or more so than it still is) as it was outlined in a florescent orange. As they fade though the orange fills in more and more reducing the effect that caught my eye but I still love this little girl a lot. Any help filling me in on what albino morph it may be would be appreciated! Thanks!

Unfortunately there's really no way to know for sure, but it looks like a Tremper to me. Bells tend to be darker. It could also easily be a Rainwater, but they're not as common.

Yeah I totally get that. For that reason I didnt intend to breed her either. I am more so wondering, just to know for myself, what else she might be showing signs of. I'll have to get a better picture. I thought maybe natural light might help but it looks too bright to see any of the contrast in her color and pattern.

Edit: Here are some pics. Hopefully it makes a bigger difference. The last one also had my HDR setting on because I forgot to turn it off. As I mentioned, its no big deal because she is awesome and wont be bred but it just looks as if something different is going on than just albinism. She has a tangy look that much bolder in person and her pattern isn't breaking up much from the saddles she has now. I got her in May when she was very small and they did spot up some but they haven't changed too too much other than more and more orange showing through. You can get a better idea of her orange in the last pic.

There are some nice tangerine albino's around. My favorites are the ones where the originally beige bands turn white and there's orange outlining around them. I've produced a few of them over the years.
