Albino
Albino is a recessive, amelanistic mutation in which melanin is absent entirely. The normal blotched pattern stays visible but loses all black pigment, leaving red, orange, or yellow tones with red eyes.
Antarctic
Antarctic is a newer incomplete-dominant trait — one copy is visually expressed, two copies produce a super form (Superantarctic). Crucially, Antarctic is ALLELIC to Arctic: they occupy the same gene location, so they do not stack like unrelated traits. A snake cannot independently carry both Superarctic and Superantarctic. One Arctic allele plus one Antarctic allele produces the 'Antarctic Arctic' compound — a distinct combined expression, not a simple stack. Plan Arctic/Antarctic pairings carefully.
What makes a Albino Antarctic
- Two copies of Albino — recessive, so it only shows when paired up.
- One copy of Antarctic — the single-gene Antarctic form (incomplete dominant, allelic with Arctic).
This describes the genetics of the animal itself — not the odds from a pairing. Outcome odds are the Genetics Calculator's job.
