Hello!
 
Hi Art,
 
Several shell related questions as applied to the Flying Piglets;
 
How uncommon are the albino or white specimens?
 
Can they be artificially "whitened"?
 
Are they resistant to whitening materials such as clorox, peroxides,
etc etc, that is will they die when treated?
 
Most of the terrestrial Piglets that are white have pigmented
spots/areas on the underbelly and snoot. Would this be true of the
Flying Piglets? Would the Elk think of these as not quite Gem quality?
 
Later,
