Ghost Cali kings...

well the color that stood out the most was the brown of course. then i guess the hypo/ghost look would have come from the blue-ish Gray-ish color it was more of a light blue... i wouldn't say the darker female wasn't a ghost/hypo... like in hondurans you have 3 types of hypos (in my opinion)... you have the regular hypos with the dark bands that express tipping with age, then you have the light hypos with lavender bands and ruby red eyes that don't express any tipping with age, then you got extremes (gray bands ruby red eyes) (different levels of the same mutation but same gene involved??) so she may have just been expressing the gene slightly different than the other two.

he also had a " hypo" cali king female some would describe her as " brown and white" but she looked hypo-ish to me not like the Ghost be lighter than typical calikings... i figure trough some test breeding to other cali morphs we should be able to determine whether there is really a hypo cali king besides the ghost
