Pretty boa!
My guess is she was produced from a Hypo Hogg Island boa crossed with an albino boa that was 50% hogg island 50% salmon red tail (the parents of this boa would have been a pure hogg and a salmon columbian red tail - both albinos or het for albino). Since 50% of genetics come from each parent, you'd get 50% hogg from the pure hogg and 25% hogg from the crossed parent = 75% hogg 25% other. Confusing right? haha
Salmon is similar to hypo in that there is reduced black pigment, but it has more pinks and reds. So you're boa is a salmon. Sunglow is a combination of hypo and albino, since hypo is codominant and albino is recessive, your boa would have to be a hypo het for albino to be het for sunglow. More confusion to add!
In the end, you have a great looking boa cross!
