Hypos will have less black and/or look faded depending on the lineage of the animal. Some hypos have lighter black colors while others just have less black. My female 'het' has started to look a bit faded, and she has really reduced bands, which is making me think that whoever produced her misjudged her as a baby. I'll know for sure if half of her babies are hypo or 25% are hypo (she's bred to a het).

The Extreme lines have extremely faded black banding that looks grey or silver.
