it is 100% correct to call them het. Moonglows.

This is EXACTLY why, we have DH Sunglows, DH Ghosts, and DH Bloody Salmons.

If the Hypo is NOT a Super, it is in the heterozygous form, has one allele not a pair. So you are correct, and you may want to help out the person who replied to your ad and mention this.

It goes back to the misconception so many people have on Hypos, dominant vs. co-dominant mutations, and understanding heterozygous and homozygous. If one person didn't start out with bad info, we wouldn't have this problem.

On the other hand, how's school going? I am lucky enough to have 22 credits this semester, lol. I'm actually back home this weekend, Eagle Scout board of review, so I brought home my 66% het Bloods which I will be breeding this year. Fingers crossed.
Did you manage to hold on to the Anery you got from me, or did you end up selling him? I am still anxious to see what he produces.
