Jeff I tend to agree with your thoughts and we have talked about this alot. IMO there are MANY paired genes along the chromosome that fall under the hypo-M control. The other thought is that there are ALSO genes that control other portions or scale development and pigment under where the black would be. With many hypo-M breedings now being done and successive generations, have the right combos of all these genes finally "found" each other? Its similiar to the selective breeding guys have been doing for years to breed a line for a specific phenotype. After enough selection the desired phenotype can be achieved. I think sometime in our finite minds we overlook the possibilities because things such as genetics are so more complicated then we can imagine. It is simply awesome to see animals like this pop up because it helps expand our minds and realms of possibilities....THANKS Terry for sharing the pic and your thoughts!!
