From the animals I have seen the Orange ones come from the Salmon and Colombian lines. Not pure El Salvador. Those are a DEEP red as adults.

I would compare Erythristic to Melanistic. Erythristic being a boa that is RED, just red. Hyper can have many meanings, but just means more than normal. So technically ANY boa with a little more than normal Erythrin levels could be characterized as this.

Just like Hypo Melanistic has a lot of meanings. There is the Hypo morph, but TECHNICALLY Pastels, Caramel, T-Plus, and even Albinos are all forms of Hypomelanism. They have LESS Melanin than normal.

Just my logic, lol. I've been known to have a twisted mind!
