Are there two different types of hypo or what? So the hypo gene being used in breeding most often today is (such as in hypo lavs etc)

Hypomelanistic means few black pigment. So most Hypo's show a trace of black. Untill now most HYPO's are compatible but recent breedings from Hypo X Hypo resulted in all normals what means that there where two types of Hypo.

Marcel, I LOVE that hypo. You post some of the most awesome pics of corns. Who do you buy your corns from?
Anyway, I try to think about it in terms of the 3 forms of anerytherism: Type A, Type B(aka-charcoal)and Caramel. I would assume that even new 'types' of anery & hypo will come about with future breeding/inbreeding and hybridization or crosses with other similar/sexually compatible species. Who knows? Genetics can be crazy! I'm not sure BUT I thought I heard that scientists were going to try to clone a wooly mammouth hybrid???? Imagine the possibilities/controversy if that occurs.

Thanks!
I carefully hand select each specimen for my collection. I buy nice corns from who ever produces them
