Creates white spotting/flecking pattern in snowflake-like formations. Epistatic to White Pattern. Snowflake requires WP to express. Heterozygous shows moderate snowflake spotting; homozygous shows enhanced spotting. Synergistic with Lilly White to produce near-full white coverage.

How to identify it: Snowflake animals show white fleck/spot patterns. Expression requires WP. Combined with Lilly White produces nearly unicolor white.
