no need to correct me or make it more simple- I think I have already agreed that a "het hypo" that is also "het albino" is a "double het". I really do get that.

my last repsonse was just to point out that all boas that have a hypomelanistic appearance are not "het hypos" - and Thank You for confirming I was correct on that point.


I just thought of a new question to ponder..

in terms of marketing then - if we are arguing so strongly that a non-super hypo is a "het hypo" then why don't we advertise and sell them as "het hypos"?

"Litter of het hypos just born!"
"On Sale - 0.1 het hypo - genetics guaranteed!"
"Proven male 100% het hypo ready for you female het hypos!"

hmmm.. maybe it would work!?
I'm just having fun...........

2007 1.0 possible het hypo ..it might be a homozygous hypo (homo hypo??).. only time and breeding will tell which for sure!
I just wish I hadn't sold it.
