When Craigs name was brought up I decided to respond, but first let me dsy those are beautiful animals no matter what the heritage.
In Craigs quest what he call a snow bull(albino white sided in my book LOL), he produced clutches of animals that had anthy, normal, white sided, albino and every once in a while a really strange looking yellow faded looking animal he called a hypo. In the truest sense of the word they were aa they lacked black and were much lighter than a normal bull. They were few and far between though, almost as hard to find as any of the other harder morphs to produce as they were a by product of the albino white sided project.
Over the last several years we have been working with a group of those hypos and have referred to them as super hypos. In any case they are different form the "golden hypos" and the other hypoie: lacking black or at least a lack of the normal amount o black and being much lighter than a normal is coloration. Sometimes with a yellow back ground and sometimes with a red back ground. For those of you that work with corns, you know we have found at keast 3 and maybe 4 forms of hypos in varyig degrees in them. I suspect that it is the same with bulls and even local specific animals such as the yellow bulls of South Texas falling into that group of natural hypos.
In addition to the man made forms such as te Turmbower hypos and super hypos we are working with.
My two cents worth anyway. Again Beautiful animals to say the least!! Below are a few pictures showing what I am talking about. I will try to gt adult pictures of the super hypos in the next few days to post also.
