    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Correct me if I'm wrong,
But there's no such thing as Het lipstick albino is there?
A lipstick albino is only created by breeding 2 lipstick albinos (from Tom burkes line) together.?
And you can't call a sunglows lipstick just because he's high red it has to be of burkes lines to be true lipstick?

What would you call that type of morph?
It's genetic to a certain degree but not as typical as most.
Would you just call it an out crossed line of albinos high for red?

Appreciate any info
Thanks,
 
There's a few different albino lines (Lipstick, Lovell, Crabe Red, etc.) & sometimes these line labels are given a snake incorrectly in hopes of getting an extra buck. This is where you need to have a reputable breeder or creator of the line themselves. Someone put in a lot of effort, time, & money for these lines through selective breeding among higher quality stock. It's a shame for others to wrongfully label & downgrade the line name through false advertisements only to make a sale.
 
Chris is right.

If the het. animal is displaying an absurd amount of coloration as one of it's visual siblings would be, you can get away with calling it a het. Lipstick. It is not unheard of for het. animals from Coral and Lipstick breedings to develop almost purple coloration as they age (some darken more than others) and then in turn throw out phenomenal offspring.

However, it is safest and most accurate to simply say "Het. Albino from Lipstick" lines or something similar since the Lipstick traits are not guaranteed to pass on.

I agree its very unfortunate the number of people mis advertising and ruining the hard-work and money spent to produce these lines.
