ok i have a baby anery a and it just shed for the first time last night i also have a snow that i have had since january. the thing is i never have seen a patern on the snow's sheds but there is one on the anery's is this normal or what? also the anery looks a little lighter in the saddles is this cause of the shed?
 
Mmm... could it be possible that your snow is actually a ghost? Ghosts I know don't have any patterns on their sheds, might be the same case for a snow, but I've never heard it, so might not be. Anyone else have any clues?

But I wouldn't worry too much about patternless sheds (they're kinda cool IMO).

Snow sheds...

have no pattern either. It's the black pigment that gives color to the shed...a snow doesn't have any black pigment. My amels, butters, etc., do not have patterned shed either.
 
ok i thought it was ok thanks for the info. also will this happen every time he sheds? and yea i know its a snow not a ghost because it turned from white and pink to white and green no grey in there at all
 
All my darker colored corns have a pattern visible on all their sheds, no matter their age.

As for your aneryth seeming lighter after his shed, corns do seem brighter after a shed but some aneryths, especially young ones, may actually get lighter with age (noticable after each shed), but generally, by the time they're 6 mo to a year old, their color is at it's final stage. I've attached 2 pics of sibling aneryths (1 here and 1 in a reply) that started out identical in coloration, but you will notice that the second one has gotten lighter in the past 6 months.
