A Hypo is heterozygous see the definiton below:
An organism is a heterozygote or is heterozygous at a locus or gene when it has different alleles occupying the gene's position in each of the homologous chromosomes. In other words, it describes an individual that has 2 different alleles for a trait. In diploid organisms, the two different alleles were inherited from the organism's two parents. For example a heterozygous individual would have the allele combination Pp.

A Super Hypo is homozygous a regular hypo is heterozygous. An animal that is hypo and het for albino is a double het
