New to breeding boas... Two quick questions!

http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...ps83e1a8a5.jpghttp://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...ps96f3a011.jpghttp://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...psda18d987.jpg heres 2 examples of what a hypo will look like, and also a sunglow (which carries the hypo and the albino gene)

Hotsalza: that top pic a male or female? and if it is available shoot me a pm with details please!

op: sorry :hijackd: temporarily. you can have it back now.

To the OP: you can tell that your male is not a hypo by the amount of black pigmentation. Hypomelanism is a reduction of black pigment. Hypos are not albinos, so there is not an absence of black pigmenation, just a reduction. Your snake has normal coloration so it only het albino at best.

Hotsalza posted a couple of pics that are excellent examples. Here are 2 more hypos for future reference. Just compare to your snake to see the difference.
