Newb genetics question

Is there any visual way of telling amel from hypo amel? I bred a pair of amels het anery (as they was sold to me) and expected snows. Instead I got 4 normal looking babies and 4 snow looking babies. After a few weeks the snows looked almost the same as the normals just a little creamier. The normal amels was very high white and the red on the "snows" looks more orange. Anyway strongly resemble a coral to me. I sold all but one. I can get pics of parents and that one if anyone is interested in helping me.

I don't believe there is a way to visually tell them apart, for sure. Pics of everybody couldn't hurt though...

Amels can be very light at hatching with the red color coming in later, usually you can see much more after just a shed or two. Here is an excellent example of how light an amel can be at hatching and how it looks after it's first and then second shed: http://www.cornsnakes.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=104895

It's hard to be sure but you have two different types of hatchlings, bright and pale. I wouldn't be surprised to see the 2nd one turn out to be a hypo or something like that. Keep us posted as they develop, OK?
