I've notice over a few generations of breeding Hypos that the normal het siblings are cleaner then non Hypo related mutations.

I suspect the Hypo influence in gradualy cleaning the tipping on normals.

Hi Marc,

Or it could also be that the hypos came from a line of unusually clean hondos. Remember the first hypo appeared from Bill & Kathy Love's "tangerine dream" line of normal tangerine hondurans that was selling for very high prices because of its clean colors.
