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.
Swiss Chocolate
Swiss Chocolate is a recessive, hypermelanistic mutation that increases melanin production, concentrated most heavily on the head. Hatchlings are born dark and stay that way, producing a rich chocolate-brown snake — similar to Sable but darker and warmer in tone.
What makes a Tangerine
- Two copies of Albino — recessive, so it only shows when paired up.
- Two copies of Swiss Chocolate — recessive, so it only shows when paired up.
This describes the genetics of the animal itself — not the odds from a pairing. Outcome odds are the Genetics Calculator's job.
