These are my 2 new hatchlings. The parents are:
Male-High Yellow
Female-Tremper Albino Eclipse.
Im unsure of HETs for both parents. Do you think the hatchlings just look like a normal, or something else? The one with the funny pattern on her head has gone a more vivid purple in the places where it was slightly purple since I took these photos. And the pattern on her head has started going a violet sort of colour too.

They all look like normals to me. Tremper and Eclipse are both recessive so you can assume they are normals 50% poss. double het tremper and eclipse.

I thought they might be. Today, the one with the strange pattern on her head has developed a light/pale blue band on her chest. In some lights it looks turquoise. And it isn't internal bleeding, because I've seen that before and it doesn't look the same at all. I'll see if I can get a good photo of the blue coloured band later.

That's what I thought, just didn't know for sure because of the vivid purple bands on the first one. What do you think the blue stripe across the chest is? Still struggling to get photos of it, the camera just doesn't show it up properly.

This is correct. I misread the parents the first time >_<

With any kind of reduced pattern leo the bands start out a black/dark grey and then turn purple and start to get spots on the dark bands. With a Super Hypo (no spotting at all on the body) the bands will not get spotty instead they will turn green or orange. Hypos (extremely reduced spotting) do the same thing but have a few spots. With a High Yellow (slightly reduced spotting) the bands will continue to a lighter lavender color and more spots. Sometimes the lavender turns greenish.

You likely have High Yellow or Normals.

Not sure about this "blue band" on the chest... would need pics

The blue band seems to come and go. Im not sure it is a feature of her pigment, possibly just the shadow of food through her thin skin. The second one seems to have the lavender bands without a black rim, and doesnt seem to be developing spots, whereas the first has developed a few spots inside the bands, and on her head.
