>>Is the SD striped hypo you have on your site a striped mocha? And would breeding a banded mocha to a striped normal possibly yield a striped mocha? Again the newbie questions.



There's two different striped hypos there....







...and the second one is definitely not a Mocha. The first one has a really bright flash on it, so its hard to say, but it doesn't look like a Mocha adult. It could be a young one. As far as your second question, I don't know how the Mocha trait is inherited. I don't know if its even considered a hypo, even though its lighter than a lot of hypos. It just seems like it dramatically fades out for some reason. You'll have to do some experimenting to find out. When you breed it, hold back the lightest baby and see how it turns out. Take pictures of all the babies and document everything the best you can, so you can look back on your records. My records have come in very handy for me. I'm still experimenting and learning with the Grease kings and scrambled banded Newport.
