Subadult "Glacier" Leopard

Amazing "glacier" morph ! Did this colour mutation appear spontaneously among your normal hatchlings or did you select it by intercrossing super blond leopards ?
Is it an hypo or leucistic morph (born with black eyes) or an ivory albino form (born with red eyes) ?

Thanks for your comments. This morph appeared from normal appearing adults. The adults are approximately 17 years old and have since "lost" their pattern. Their pictures are included. Some of the babies have hatched out without dark pigment but you can still see the pattern where the melanin would normally be. These do not have red eyes and therefore we don't believe they are amelanistic. They have dark eyes but as I said, a pattern is still somewhat visible, so I don't believe they are leucistic either. We are waiting to breed one of the subadults back to the father and a normal appearing male offsprig back to the mother to see what those results would be. Only a small percentage of the babies come out "glacier" and at this time there are not two of them large enough to breed, just one, so time will tell if this is simple recessive or something else. I have more pics if you are interested.

Take care,
Jeff
