Do albinos exist in the Leopard family? I see all of these light reds, pink bodies, but have never seen anything about it in our group?
Just wondering. Would love to see what they look like. And would still love an answer to "are they more sensitive to sun and is the shell more fragile?"


That was suppose to say Pink Boxies. Not bodies. Lol

Wow. Just peaked at that thread. Kinda creepy crazy looking, poor baby. The shell patterns are so lovely on all leopards regardless of GPP or GPB or the fancy sunset ones ... without that pattern to look forward to to change as they grow, you are left with two piercing pink eyes. Not sure of them other than it is not their little albino fault. Thanks for sharing Neal. Who knew?

Wow. Wow. Wow. They are cool. In a Happy Halloween sort of way. Do their shells get patterns eventually? just muted? or not at all? Someday, I would like to see a big 'um! : )

There's that guy in Illinois. He has adults, but they just look like a light colored leopard with no pattern. Not very attractive to me.

Neal, on that other thread (now closed) was the scam fake animals, or the price, maybe some other aspect?

Will

The price was actually realistic, surprisingly, but the scam was whoever I was communicating with was living in Africa and wanted me to send him money through Western Union for these albino tortoises. It's actually a common scam...or was...but any time I see a request to send money through Western Union all sorts of red flags go up.

I'm sure the animals in the pictures are real animals...whether they belong to the person I was actually communicating with, I would doubt it.

Didn't Tom Crutchfield receive a batch of albino leopards a while ago? Does anyone know how these are doing?

Will:

The guy who places those ads also sells tea-cup poodles and other popular animals. The fun part is when he changes "tortoise" in his ads to "poodles" he forgets to change some of the words later in the ad. So you are looking at an ad selling tortoise/poodles.
