    Is my sunglow possibly a super?

    I bought this early 2011 female lipstick sunglow in April and as I've compared her to other sunglows I've seen she has always seemed very bright do me. Do you think she could be a super hypo albino instead of just a hypo albino?

    Still figuring out boas as well BUT as I understand, a lipstick sunglow IS a super hypo albino. As where a straight sunglow is a hypo albino. Does that sound right? Did you buy it as a lipstick?

    I don't know that much about how the boas work either, but she is gorgeous. Her color is amazing.

    If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.

    NO... A lipstick sunglow is just a line dubbed by Tom Burke for the coloration of his sunglows.

    If both parents of this sunglow carry the hypo gene it could possibly be a super sunglow that comes from the Lipstick line.

    I would ask what the parents were, if both were hypo carriers you have a possible super lipstick sunglow and when bred you can find out if it is
    super or not.

    I don't know the parents. She was produced by Tim koppenhoffer? Something like that. I bought her from somebody else though.

    Yes she was sold to me as a lipstick. I actually asked Tom Burke today and he said that he thinks it is NOT a super. Either way, I am so in love with this girl!
