Parents are Tremper Blazing Blizzard X Mack Snow het Tremper
Im guessing he has too much color to be a snow, he is just a light Tremper het Blizzard

Here he is at about a month old

Not any younger than a month, I had to do some digging just to find those.
He was born pink and white.
Paul had mentioned that many tremper het blizzards can be light colored or washed out so I thought I would ask the experts.

Yes, all het blizzards are more light than the morph normal are (allmost all).
But because of the white colour when he is one month, i think he is mack snow tremper het blizzard, because that white i dont think a het blizzard can be. (but i can be wrong)

Pic from leo wiki:
Babies about 1-2 months

Adult, look on the bright but still yellowish.

yes i think hes a mack talbino.t albinos produce a lot more yellow over time and the older pic i think is a mack talbino. in my experience the blizzard influence doesn't make any difference as its recessive.just because its het doest affect the colour in any way what so ever.perfect example are APTOR's.they are het for talbino poss eclipse and APTOR look nothing like t albino.the colour difference is just because of the way its been incubated as you can vary it with albinos and most other geckos and what colour they will come out may change between every single gecko incubated from those parents.

I know many geckos where the het have a effect, on how the colour appears.

I have a book, where its stand. Cant find it.

I have two wildtypes one het tremper and the other is a just normal.
The Wildtype het tremper are more yellow and more brown like a tremper brown, the other is just normal.
Also seing tremper het blizzards whitere than normal.

never herd of that at all.i honestly dont see it myself neither.im not doubting you but i just cant see how it would change anything just because it was het for something.just because an animal is het it makes no difference to the coloring as a rule of thumb.perfect example is a albino that was het for patternless? sorry i just don't understand that at all in genetics terms how it would work other then something like temp influence whilst incubating.:main_huh:

Its only sometimes, not all hets do it. I am going to see if I can find an explanation...

perfect example are APTOR's.they are het for talbino poss eclipse and APTOR look nothing like t albino.the colour difference is just because of the way its been incubated as you can vary it with albinos and most other geckos and what colour they will come out may change between every single gecko incubated from those parents.
Sorry have to disprove this example:

APTORs look different than a t albino because of the P and OR part of APTOR.
The P stands for Patternless, which is a combination of stripe and reverse stripe gene to make it look Patternless.
OR stands for Orange, not all t albinos are orange.
