Hypos are not weak gened animals. It is obvious just by looking at other island local boas that are predominantly hypo. If it works on an island it will happen on the mainland at some point. If you put enough hypos in an area they are going to breed out the normals over a long enough time span. Hogs, and hypo may be pretty colors in captivity but thow one on the ground in some sandy leaf litter and they'd blend right in..

This is all speculation either way at this point, but a friend of mine here did just produce a full litter of 75% hog hypos (the first ones done) and the results point in my favor.. The blonde type hypo that hogs carry seems to be dominant to some extent.
