I'd have to say high yellow reduced as well, doesn't quite have that orange colour of a tang except on the legs and a bit on the tail.

I'd say reduced spotting. Because high yellow is only a term that some people use because they want their leos to be a morph. Very nice leo I like the head

High yellow, reduced spot. The reason why the high yellow term is used is because there is no dark pigment on the hind legs. Very pretty leo

no spots on the hind legs is only hypo guys! the amount on black is due to the melanine and has nothing to do with the xantic pigments. So it cant be high yellow (hyper xantic) because it has fewer melanine.

I just find it to be a normal with a small amount of orange, but not enough to be called a tang.

No one is claiming high yellow to mean hyper axanthic. The term "high yellow" means that there is more yellow on the body, not a higher concentration of axanthic pigment in the skin. For example, if you were to call a carpet python 'high yellow', it wouldn't be BRIGHTER yellow, it would just have less black and so more yellow area.

In this case, high yellow refers to more yellow skin on the legs, so in other words an absence of black pigment on the legs.

Well, pretty much ALL leopards now are high yellow. So whether you use high yellow as meaning bright yellow, or as having no dark pigment on their legs; the two go hand in hand (if a leo has no dark pigment on its legs, it's probably bright too!) and so you will probably be right! The true definition, though, is having no dark pigment on the legs.

Sad, I just sold a baby I had. had many many many dark spots, could have given a very dark morph a few generations down. Worst part, is I sold it to someone who will prob never reproduce it.

You mean a melanstic? I wouldn't worry too much, there isn't much of a market for them (well, i certainly hope someone is working on producing an all-black leo that isnt a mignight blizzard because i think those are ugly )

Hypo refers to the body spots. Hi-yellow is the lack of spotting on the hind legs.
