In my own breeding, f1 hypo x f1 hypo did in fact produce approx. 25% nomal boas, this was a couple yrs. ago, and I was surprised at that time to produce any normals. I do believe that a % of the resulting f2's are super and I will find out next yr.(I hope)

I always understood the Hypo/Salmon to be if you breed a hypo to a hypo, you would get 25% Normal 25% Supers, and 50% hypo... If I am correct, hypos have both a normal and a hypo / Salmon gene, so if bred together, they would still have a chance of offspring displaying that trait... normal.

I believe a correct breakdown would be...

super x hypo - 50% super 50% hypo
super x normal - 100% hypo
hypo x hypo - 50% hypo 25% normal and 25% super
hypo x normal - 50% normal 50% hypo

Im not sure exactly, this is just how i understand it... can someone hopefully correct me? thanks..

So anyone here remember that I was right in the first place? Thanks for getting my back.

Ok......

So after a bit of reading, I am wrong about the probabilities of what could be produced by hypo x hypo. But I'm not convinced about it not being a co-dom trait. Unless someone can explain to me what difference it makes whether or not you can physically see the difference between a co-dom (visual het) and a super.

Like I mentioned in another thread,

Hypo= H
Normal (WT)= N

If a hypo is HN and a HH is super hypo, it shouldnt matter whether its visible or not. The HH genes are there.

A super tiger retic has, lets call it, TT. Whether or not you can see it doesnt matter. The genes are still there. If you breed it to a normal and you'll get all tigers.

And the same applies to a "super" hypo.

And sorry for screwing up your thread Heath.

Well the way it was just explained to me was that the hypo gene by DEFINITION is actually a DOMINANT gene that also has a "super" form. Still doesnt make much sense, but like you just said, Ill have to take the opinion of people with more experience than me (Randall in this case). Problem is that I was doing that with our little argument as well (MG Reptiles). So who to believe? I say we should do the same as every other subject in the world just read and talk to as much people as possible and form our own conclusions.

Thanks for the PAUL.....

I try to look at the hypo gene like this. Lets say that a blue eyed person would be the same as a hypo, HN. Then a person with the genes HH would have really blue eyes, the kind that leap out at you.
Not really a good analogy, but it works for me.

Paul you didn't screw up anything, discussion is what it's all about. Take care.

Nope, actually I did not. LOL I was wrong. You will most definately get normals from a hypo x hypo breeding. And until you can pick a Homozygous salmon from a litter that contains heterozygous salmons, with 100% accuracy, I will stick to Dominant mutation. Eric gave a nicely put explanation.

And not to dis the link you posted to matt's site, but here's a better one for learning genetics. And if I remember right, he literally wrote a book on the subject. LOL Mr. Pritzel knows his stuff.

Another for Boa Constrictor morphs specifically,
