Hi welcome to the forum, so what you have are also commonly called mystery snails there is an older thread here where someone asks a similar question to you. Here is a link Mystery Snail Colors basically even though both parents are gold in colors they carry other color genes that can provide...

Hi, Welcome to the forum! Sounds like you are experienced keeper. What is your current favorite fish in you collection?
