Are you are writing about boa constrictors, corn snakes, or some other species? Hypo is a dominant mutant gene in the boa constrictor and a recessive mutant gene in corn snakes. It makes a difference in the answers to your questions. I'm pressed for time right now, but I'll check back later this afternoon.
