The article on the barkers website a carmel albino is a halfway point to being an actual albino. I took out this liitle section from there site.

"A t albino snake is able to create tyrosinase, and then can accomplish the first two steps of melanin synthesis. But a t albino is lacking a necessary enzyme for one of the subsequent steps. There is a different enzyme for each step, but which enzyme is defective is not specified. So we know what a t albino is not (it is not a t- albino) but we do not know what it is, and there can be different causes."

So in my mind it is pointless to do a t positive to a t negative breeding. I dont know what the boa woman hypo is actually so I cant comment on the breeding other than I cant pick out the cross in the picture.
