>Trying to see if I understand this. If I mate my albino male to a hypo female will I get hypo's het for albino that if mated back to my albino would produce sunglows?

Okay, so it is hypo in boa constrictors. The answer is yes. See the post by b1r2s.

>What if I got a DH het for sunglow female for my albino male? or a hypo DH het for sunglow?

"DH het for sunglow" and "hypo DH het for sunglow" are the same thing. Though I prefer to use "hypo, heterozygous albino". BTW, if someone trys to sell you a DH het for sunglow that is not hypo, he doesn't understand the genetics. That is the charitable interpretation, anyway.

>My albino is only a few months old, I have a 100% het for albino female for him now but I'm trying to find out what other female I should purchase for him.

Getting a hypo female that is heterozygous albino would cut a generation off the time needed to produce sunglows. That would be a good buy if money and cage space permit.
