I think Kevins are from an acual panimainian hypo x hog down the line.. but I am not positive on that they are F3's from D&M's line.

I think it's the hog that is making the pattern stay. The more hog blood the less the pattern is reduced. The reason why I think that is, is because hogs have evolved to have a pattern in a world of all hypos. Their pattern lacks black so how can hypomelanisim reduce it..

I follow you on the salmon line with the extra reduction of pattern and general aberrancy, I think that is just somthing inherent to that specific line.

Chris,
That is a great example of how hogs are hypomelanistic in the morph type sence. Nice looking too!

I think the hog island morphs will realy add somthing to a lot of projects down the line.
