Your terminology is all wrong.
All Hypos are dominant - meaning that they are visually different looking in the heterozygous form, or Homozygous form.
The heterozygous (het) Hypo means that it has the Hypo gene from only one of its parents. When bred to a normal, approx half the babies will be Hypo.
The Homozygous (also called Super Hypo) means that it received the Hypo genes from both parents. All of its offspring will be Hypos
The Co-, in Co-dominant mutations simply mean that when two of the same dominant genes are bred together, a new mutation (look) takes place -- visually different from the heterozygous form. Such as Motleys, Aztecs, and Jungles. -----
