All this time I have been saying it Loo sis tic lol... I've never been good at pronouncing things though smile It sure does help me to remember how to spell it though. Leucistic

I've heard other breeders say it the way I do as well, thats probably why I started saying it like that.

There are not WF hets... there ARE Leu hets. WF is a dominant gene, different from the color gene and it is always expressed. Meaning if the WF gene is in the gliders DNA, you see it! You only need one WF parent to pass it on to the babies. (on another note mosaic/white variation is the same)

So you're saying although 2 wf parents has twins one being a wf the other would not be a Het?
If not is it a Gray?

if there are no wf hets then why are breeders advertising them as het's for WF?

This is why I don't understand they say there are not and then advertise as they are.....

There are alot of breeders who still believe that there are wf hets. Since there is that case (or two) of two grays having wf babies, the grays had to be hets or they wouldn't of been able to have wf babies.

I believe that there is more to genetics then we know.

Some breeders don't know that people are no longer calling babies from wf parents that are gray, just grays. Just 2 years ago every one was selling wf "hets" becaues most still believed that there were such a thing. It is gonna be a while before every one catches up. Some people still say hets, letting people know that they are from wf parents. Thats not really a bad or good thing, unless the person buying doesn't know anything.

The lady I purchased our Wallaby from use to have Gliders and she had normals and her normals produced a few Albinos some to which she sold to a lady by the name of Caroline McPherson.

This had been many yrs ago to so now amkes me wonder what is out there and who has what and who began what gene.

Yeah not alot of people are on line and don't know the terms that we all use (not saying our way is the right way). I've talked to many people who own gliders and when they send me pictures or I see them in person I'm like did you know you have a wf glider.

Lookistic sounds funny to me. I still like loosistic. I will continue to say it like that, just like I continue to spell grey with an e instead of an a. Standard Grey tounge

Maybe as more of leucisitc hets from different parents come out, people who have leucistic het babies can start to trade each other for hets from other lines. I know that the leucisitic line is very close about five generations out and one or two names show up way too often. As there is more variety in the lineages 2-3 generations back from the currently breeding lines, it will become easier to find a 100% het from different parentage for 4-5 generations. Isn't this how the white face blonde was initially as well?
