Hypo super mojaves and pastel ivories have both been done, you can see a visible difference in the color. I think someone made a pastel super mojave that was lighter than a regular super mojave, but I could be wrong.

I'm breeding butter het hypo x mojave het hypo this year:

If I got a leucistic out of this pairing I'm not sure that I'd be able to see a visible difference, but I would definitly breed it to a visual hypo or hypo combo to try to prove it out as a het or homozygous hypo.

These black eyed lucys have pattern to them. They're from a sulfur mojave x sulfur mojave breeding. Give me a couple years and I'll let you know if there mojave or super mojave.

It is possible for other genes to leech their way into the leucistic trait, at least, I have seen it in garters. If you breed flame eastern garter snakes het leucistic and produce leucistics, any of those that would have also been flames, over time take on an extremely neon orange color from the flame gene leaking through. It's really neat to see!!!
