wish i had something to say my friend its just that jon and justin pretty much nailed this topic at least from my point of view they did. anything i really say would just be a repeat.

but to give my 2 cents i will write this if i was offered a "hypo" that didn't have the so to say standard lavender belly i would except it as a hypo knowing it might in fact be a t plus or some sort of albinism as long as it had a reduction of melanin and was obviously a proven genetic. personally i dont think that the color of the belly makes the deciding factor in wether it is in fact a hypomelanistic specimen. i have lots of normals that have way way different looking belly's and if there were genetics plugged into them im sure they would have crazy different colors even if i used the same line. look at the pic on kevins web site of the "orange belly red" that thing has one of the crazy coolest bellys ive ever seen. what color would that belly be if it was bred to a evans line hypo or a "toffee" would there be any lavender or toffee coloring since the amount of black is so little?? i think no.

i do think this is a very interesting topic and would love to see a long thread filled with opinions and knowledge its just kinda hard jumping in with any knowledge after those two guys pretty much killed it. excellent post guys!!
