IS THIS A HYPO?! Father was a SunGlow & Mother was a normal Columbian Red Tail...

Won't let me post a picture so the snake will be in My Images, thank you!

yes, that snake is hypo, now i'm going to attempt a gene breakdown - but someone please correct me if i am off here (but if i'm right, well, you know where the rep+ button is )
i believe its also 100% Het albino
if i'm not mistaken, sunglows are het hypo albinos (and if it is homozygous hypo, then its a super-sunglow), so your snake got one albino gene from dad, not enough to be visual, but also a hypo gene which is an incomplete dominant, so it is visual.
Its a beauty at any rate, and a potential albino parent if you're into breeding and find another het albino, or albino to pair it with.

The 3rd and 5th photo are taken with the flash on and the last one is just the light from the bulb inside a dome on top of the enclosure!

Thank you! I uploaded more photos, I'm in the process of learning the genetics behind these morphs. But thanks for your reply I hope it's HET ALBINO given the parents!

Yes its hypo het albino since one of the parents was a Sunglow. Though we can't tell you if it's a kahl or sharp albino gene. You will have to get that information from wherever you bought it from or experimenting with breeding in the future.

I appreciate it

[yaboyyoungd1234567]

How much are these worth?

[chip07]

If you do not know if it is het kahl or sharp it should be priced as if it's just a hypo. I do not want to offend and I'm just going to give my opinion here as if it was something I came across to buy. So to me it's not high quality. It isn't clean, the red isn't great, and doesn't have much pink through out. Her tail is decent though so you might be able to get $125-$150 maybe if you were to sell. High quaility hypos with known albino genetics can go around $300. The better the quality and genetics the higher the price.


I paid $275 shipped for my hypo ph leopard male and $375 shipped for my possible super hypo jungle female.

You're giving your honest opinion, I appreciate that no heart feelings. Thanks for the knowledge all the info I know from the breeder is what I've shared and I've seen the parents or at least the father and he's def a SunGlow. That's still not a bad price considering I got him for $40.
