    they also lack yellow pigment. It is yet another recessive trait, unrealated to albinism. Out of 3 pairs of albino we bred recently only one produced that kind of offspring. Shortly after metamorphosis they look like regular albino, and soon afterwards they "bleach". The one with yellow patch on the back is already white, by now...
