Hey I am totally confused and need some info. I've been reading up on leo morphs and looked at some galleries but cant figure out the difference inbetween all these different albino varieties (Tremper, Rainwater and Bell). Are these different genetically or does it have to do with pattern, colour?
Thanks in advance

Andy, they are genetically different, it's not just appearance. There have been 3 different strains of albinism discovered in leos so far, which you listed above -- Tremper, Rainwater, and Bell. If these animals are bred together, no albinos will be produced as the different strains are not compatible -- you would just produce babies that were het for both strains. To the best of my knowledge, nobody has yet produced an animal that displays 2 of the different strains, although many double hets have been produced.
Hope this helps a bit :)
