~Troy I could not agree more but I 100% agree with your second statement about the Toffees: that the Paradoxing is not out of the ordinary for toffees but since they are T positives and t positives don't normally have "normal" blotches on them, that makes toffees "paradox" t positive albinos because for a t positive they are out of the norm.

~I wish people would call the evans line of T positives "T Positives" or everyone agree on another name so that TRUE hypos could just be called hypos and not "true" ones but that is not my decision to make

~I think it makes sense that the evans line of "hypos" are not actually hypos and in fact they are t positive albinos because the double homo t positive/t negative (classic albinos) is REALLY hard if not impossible to tell apart from a regular t negative (classic) and it is the EXACT same in Florida Kings. Cross a T neg and a T pos and get the double homo after breeding the double hets and the resulting albino looks REALLY similar to all the other albinos in the clutch and is almost impossible to tell apart.

~NOW we have seen Louie's Smolder (smoke true hypo x classic T negative albino), and I have seen in my own collection of Tom Agosta's TRUE Hypos and True Hybino, that a TRUE Hybino is actually distinguishable from a normal albino. The smoke true hybino is CLEARLY not just an albino and is CLEARLY a double homo and Tom Agosta's line ( which is VERY similar if not the same as the smoke hypos) produces a Hybino that is not as obvious as Louie's but as my female has grown it HAS become obvious that she is not an albino. She is extremely vibrant beyond the likes of any albino that I have ever seen and she has the GREEN face and tail that Tom's line of hypos do which his Albinos DO NOT HAVE! Plus She threw two hypo animals in a clutch of three so that proves that she is in fact a TRUE hybino and not just an albino.

~Hogs RULE, can't wait for 2011

~IMO pic looks similar to a honey hypo???
