>>New to posting on forum, but thanks to everyone for all the info I have learned from reading your posts. I have a quick (probably elementary) question about triple het for moonglow boas. If I have a triple het and I breed it to a double het, is there a small probability that I could get a moonglow? My understanding is that the hypo gene is co-dom and they both don't need to be hypo. Any info would be great.

Yes

Hypo is a Dominant Trait so long as one parent has it your good to go.

Motley would be a Co-Dominant trait, Where the Homozygous recessive, Heterozygous and Homozygous Dominant expressions all have a different visual expression.
