About
Lavender is a combo. It also specifically refers to the base color. They are Black base animals with Hypo, you can use several methods to create them and all point to a hypomelanistic trait that when mixed with black base animals produce purple and blue hues when firing up and down. They usually exhibit creamy and white coloration. Young orange animals also tend to turn white in the vast majority of animals. [1]
Lavender is a combo morph that describes a black base animal and the effect of hypo that reduces overall melanin production. This causes the base color to appear lavender, purple, sky blue, and in some cases with a greenish hue. A misconception is that “true lavenders” do not fire up. This is simply a misconception of how the trait works. The less a hypo animal appears to fire is an indication of a greater level of the trait’s stacked dominance or expression in relation to the other traits. This is true with all the known hypomelanistic traits. [2]
