    There seems to be a debate on super hypo (super salmon boas). Some say there is no such thing as a super hypo, some say there is, but there has not been any proof. I'd say you're looking at a $150 snake there.

    I'd suggest you sell the Cinny, or go trade it as you suggested. Not for that boa though.

    It certainly looks like a Salmon at least. I have a similar snake. It was sold as a probable Super Salmon Het Sunglow. I think I paid $125 for mine at a show as a neonate. As far as a dollar value goes...The Cinny is likely worth more money.

    Here is our girl, just for reference.

    The super hypo in boas is like the super pinstripe in BP. They look exactly like a regular hypo or in BP a normal pinstripe but carry both hypo genes. So when bred to a normal red tail it will produce all hypos. So that's why they call it a possible super hypo because there is no way to tell if it carries two hypo genes until you breed it.
    As far as the deal goes, I wouldn't trade a breeding size male cinny for it.
