Anery lavenders

Could someone give me some insight as to what an anery lavender would look like? I bred an anery to a lav this year and I'm curious about what the F2 will look like. Will the anery gene wipe out any trace of the lavender or will the lav gene still be noticable? If anyone has pictures that would be even better.

I am also curious about what they would look like as I am getting a pair of hatchlings and some of their offspring would be anery lavenders. In a previous post that I made, someone (can't remember who, sorry! lol) said they thought Rich had mentioned that lavender masks anery so that you can't even tell. I couldn't find that post by Rich when I searched so I'm not sure if this is right or not.
 
Yes, that's the thread I was looking for/referring to. Thanks Iris. So everyone thinks that lavender masks anery then? Well, that's ok too... it just means more lavenders in my first clutch (still a few years down the road). Lol. :)

Well, I don't think EVERYONE thinks that! I don't know of anyone else whom might have done this experimentally. But in case you are interested, I am planning on selling off the entire group of Anerythristics I have that are positively het or possibly het for Lavender. The whole point of keeping them was to prove to myself that what I have seen in years past was in fact correct. Now that I am convinced of it, I certainly don't want to keep them around any longer.

I had several clutches this year where the parents were definitely Anerythristics, yet produced regular Lavenders in the clutch.

The thing that still puzzles me about this is why don't the Snows het for Lavender produce regular Opals (Amelanistic Lavenders) for me? Perhaps now that we are getting an entire arsenal of genes to play with, we are going to find some interesting effects caused by the interaction of one genetic inflence with another. Some are certainly expected to be confusing and unpredictable.
 
So Rich,
from what you are saying is that, you don't know what "Snow Lavender" looks like or what they produce right? I was thinking of breeding my snow corn with my female lavender to see what happens. If you don't even know what will pop out, then I would think that it's going to be an interesting project that I might want to try out too....
maybe a new morph will pop out for you Rich. I know that it's not going to happen for me since I only have a snow....and it's going to be his first year breeding...I don't think that I'll be that lucky to produce something new right away...LOL...
