I think I understand what you are saying. Either the Anery or Albino gene would be dominant over the other, or if both work in incomplete dominance you would have the snow/blizzard.

If the traits were linked, wouldn't a DH to a Type II of the same line yeild all Type II. Technically the DH would have two matching alleles, thus being homozygous for the genotype, with no effect on the phenotype.

I am trying to understand this, any helpful critisisim is appreciated.

Again this is all hypothetical. However in the future these techniques for test crosses may prove much more to us about Boa traits.
