Patrick, so I take it that your claim of "HYPO" has to do with a "standard" definition and the fact that albinos have PINK eyes? I think it unusual that these hatchlings DO have some pink in the eye. Maybe its not "classic" amelanism, but I dont think albinos HAVE to fit the standard.And how do you account for the black rats that Dwight Good found/posted here last year that were albino with BLACK eyes? Further, by placing a relatively arbatrary name like "HYPO" on the morph opens it to scrutiny.Any other opinions?Jeff
