I'm pretty sure Greg acknowledges that he has something that is hypomelanistic, but not necessarily genetically the same as what people typically think of as hypos/ghosts. I think that over time he will be able to answer a lot more questions and may even begin to refer to his hypo appearing animals as something different from traditional hypos/ghosts.Originally Posted by daniel1983
Many years ago Tracy Barker had a hypomelanistic animal that was also not compatible with all of the other hypos. That snake also had a scale “texture” that was supposedly very unique.
I’m sure there may be other animals floating around that might have genetics that make them different. That’s why it’s important to ask a lot of questions of the person producing any animals that you are investing in and working with someone that takes the time to find out what they have in order to help you with your breeding success.
I've crossed offspring of imported hypos owned by VPI, Kyle Stevens, and Matt Turner with my imported butterscotch and imported green animals and they have all been compatible. I've also mixed yellow, green, and butterscotch successfully.
