New Black and White Eastern Garter Morph Found!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jeff B]

It's really not granite like the granite checkered or the golden morph where the pattern and squares are completely reduced to little irregular flecks It appears to be more a color mutation rather than a pattern mutation. All yellows, browns, and orange is stripped away and replaced with white pigment. I am not sure if the white is just what was there underneath or is it up-regulated. I think that future breedings may help answer some of those questions by the looking at the phenotypes when combined with other morphs.
