no.

anery = no red
axanthic = no yellow

both are simple recessive.

no worries.

Can see your confusion, the end result in snakes is often very similar/the same.

it like that because snakes like carpet pythons, royals and yellow condas have yellow not red so instead of anery its axanthic basically the same end result but its not anery as mason said


anery = no red

axanthic = no yellow

be careful with the spelling

xanthic = yellow
axanthic = lack of yellow

since we're being pedantic don't forget that anery is an abbreviation of anerythristic

Its not really pedantic considering xanthic is the complete opposite to axanthic.


For instance if I advertised my xanthic pictus to you as an axanthic and it arrived bright yellow, you probably wouldnt be amused!
