I have always been curious what the BCI and BCC world think of this question:

The Wife and have talked about this before and we have discussed this on other forums, but Say for example, Some one breeds a (Hypo x Hog) or a (Hypo Bci x BCC) and then they take the offspring and breed it back to one or the other example:

Breed the offspring of a Hypo x Surinam back to a Surinam, and keep doing so for 5 or more generations, will there be a point where someone could classify it as a pure Hypo Surinam?

Example: Hypo bci x Surinam BCC = 50% Hypo Surinam

50% Hypo Surinam x Surinam = 75% Hypo Surinam

75% Hypo Surinam x Surinam = 88% Hypo Surinam

88% Hypo Surinam x Surinam = 90something%

and after the 5th or 6th time, they would be pretty much Pure Surinam correct or do you think that becuase it has the hypo gene it will never be a pure surinam? Just curious how the BCI and BCC world looked at this?
