    Pink/orange marking can mean something sometimes, but not always. At the the store we put out a lot of BCI with pink/salmon/orange, etc... with absolutely no albino blood in the parents. Now, I do have an adult partial stripe female that I bought as 100% het albino and possible het snow, dad was 100% het snow and striped while mom was a cut and dry albino. I never saw her litter mates so I cannot a test to them, but she has some major orange and pink on her sides and belly, plus an odd blue-gray tint to her grayer areas. The male has a lot of gold and brown on him so that makes me doubtful of albino blood but I also doubt it's impossible. I agree that neither are hypo, if you cannot believe Evenstar, then believe logic...
    Hypomelanistic: below melanin...melanin causes dark pigments...the decent amount of black on both specimens is an obvious sign of at least average melanin ratios, therefore she is not hypomelanistic. Very nice pair, nice consistent patterns that would produce beautiful specimens hets or not.
