makes sense I suppose. So basically your saying in an albino the melanin is removed thereby leaving the animal with white/light areas in exchange for the black/dark areas in a normal. These white areas cover up the reds/yellows/pinks, ect just as the melanin does in normals. By adding the hypo gene you are reducing those dark areas beforehand, allowing for an animal that has that much more color showing through rather than being covered up in the first place, then you add the albino gene to remove the leftover melanin that the hypo DOES contain ... and viola ?? LOL ...



Everyone agree this is whats happening??



Thanks for the education guys!
