Missymonkey - No, they won't lose their color. Ghosts can actually have alot of color. Here's a pic of an adult ghost with lots of color.
cka - It's a matter of terminology. Normal het amel = Normal het for anery. The addition of the "for" makes the difference. I always used to name hets as to what they would produce, but was corrected several times to name them as to what gene was het. ie, a normal with this genetics (RrBB) is called het amel (the gene that produces red color is het to NOT produce red color = anery). Now, if I'm still naming hets wrong, I wish everyone will make up their minds! It's confusing enough as it is!!
