the individual specimen itself would still technically be "hyperxanthic", it's just that we as breeders, and the hobby in general tend to coin traits that ARE passed onto the offspring far more reliably so we can label them as a particular type, and not simply a variant.
But its much funner doing it that way, Doug. hahaha What good is a hyperxanthic snake if you can't reproduce more...lol I get what your saying, bro. If I had a hyperxanthic king and couldn't get it to produce more, I would just keep that name to my self for argument sake. lol
