Midnight looks like a normal to me. From the pictures, it does appear that the female is a hypomelanistic boa. As was said, hypomelanism is dominant over the wild-type/normal gene so a regular (heterozygous) hypo would yield 50% hypos when bred to a normal and a homozygous (super) hypo would yield all regular hypos when bred to a normal.
