Is Felix a PP? Do PPs sometimes end up with albino traits?

Felix has to be a PP as the PetSmart where I bought him (and most of my crabs over the years) carries only PPs, no exotics, not even the occasional E. When I first got him in July 2008, he was a pale salmon and stayed that color for about 2 years. For the past 4+ years, he's been getting paler: pink to lilac to pale gray. As he molts regularly, eats the same food as the others, drinks often and is very active (although Big Enzo and Harry are considerably larger, Felix rules the 'tat), I just don't worry about his color anymore. Maybe he's making a fashion statement :lol: !

It's cool...they all change over time. I was just wondering. I found a topic here that albino traits probably aren't possible in hermits.

I would agree in that albino means a lack of pigmentation and that would leave a hermit vulerable to UVB or sunburn.
