Yes, it does...
look like a Caramel, now doesn't it? And this opens up a whole new pack of questions.
When I bred Snows het for Lavender, how come they ALL looked just like regular old snows? Since an Amelanistic Caramel produces a Butter, why didn't I get anything looking like this when I probably produced at least one Amelanistic Anerythristic Lavender?
Of course, I am only theorizing that this animal is homozygous for both 'A' Anerythrism and Lavender. I actually have a small group of animals that are just like this, including one that came from my Hypo Lavender project corns that looks like it may actually be a Ghost, but the blotches more resemble what I am seeing in these particular corns.
Could this be a Ghost Lavender? Beats me. It's a male, so for starters I would have to breed it to something like a Hypo Lavender female as a first test. But suppose it isn't? The babies would be virtually worthless (Hypos het for Lavender and 'A' Anerythrism), whereas Hypo Lavenders are still bringing in decent money. I did breed him to a Motley last year, but I must have been out of my mind. Just what I need is a batch of definite triple hets, possible quad hets, to grow up and breed.
Last year I bred amels het for Caramel and Lavender, from which I got some rather interesting looking animals, NONE of which look like what I had expected. I had planned on breeding Amber to Hypo Lavender this year, but I don't know if I really want another pack of keepers to have to deal with for a few years to see what results I get. I am literally being overrun by interesting gene carriers that many of you would probably kill for.
