I think albinos and hets that also have the salmon gene are heartier animals and more prolific. I think the outbreeding into salmon resulted in stronger animals that can breed at a young age and produce good size litters. As a result I think you are seeing a lot of sunglows produced.
I think the addition of the hypo gene into snows will have a similar effect with the amount of snow production increasing dramatically when moonglows are readily available.
