Although I know that genetically the trait is dominant, I feel homozygous animals tend to have less black pigment around the tail blotches AFTER the vent when compared to heterozygous hypomelanistic animals. I think this is the cause for confusion in the case of its genetic inheritance.
I would like to see pictures of proven homozygous animals that do not have a reduction in black pigment surrounding the tail blotches after the vent.
