The third baby is a Lily White. While born as a Lily White, many Tri Extreme Harlequin (TriX-Harley) traits are noticeably present throughout its appearance.

Even at birth, it looked as if the Lily White and TriX-Harley traits were competing, with the Lily White barely winning. This is especially evident on the dorsal, where despite being a Lily, a strong tiger pattern is still visible.

As it grows, the tiger pattern is gradually fading. However, due to this pattern, the dorsal pinning is broken and irregular, rather than continuous. Additionally, the bumpy dorsal, a signature trait of the Barb lineage, is clearly prominent. The crown is also well-defined with white pinning, giving it a more dimensional appearance.

On the lateral sides, the high lateral walls and pure white coloration are striking, contributing to an overall excellent coverage. While it might not fit the mold of a classic high-end Lily White, its unique combination of traits makes it stand out.
