That would be the likely scenario. As the original starting hogs on the island would have had to of been supers. Eventually creating an island of sole super hypos.

Which means hog x col would yeild all codominant hypo hog/col crosses. Breeding those F1's to another new (non-hog or hypo) bloodline would yeild distinct 50/50 (50% hypo , 50% normal) offspring.

I suspect this has been done and if it were true, it would be obvious that it is a single gene mutation. It would also be huge news to the community. Because of that I highly doubt it is a single gene mutation.
