Definitely......
I already raised a pair of them.... Their saddles are totally pink.....
This one is very similar in coloration to his uncle at his age.... And that adult male is one of the nicest Hypoerythristics that I've seen..... So glad I have him....
What I'm really curious about is how dark his ground color will get as his father has an almost solid black ground color.....

If this one pictured ends up black and pink then it was easier to get there than I initially thought...... I do think the project will need refining though.... Plus it's time to get the hypo-e gene on an ultra granite..... I will be breeding a young pair this year that have a granite and a black parent....if they throw a black granite it will be time to breed the black hypo-e to it.... Fingers crossed....

Then there's the striping gene to work on, refine and cross into the hypo-es and blacks.....
