I guess everyone has their own opinion of what a super hypo and hypo is......

If you look at the dictionary, hypo means "less than normal black pigment" or something along those lines.....

Super hypo would have to mean much less black pigment in the case of leos because when they were given this name, I do not think anyone thought they might be co-dom..... For the record, I do not think they are co-doms.....

In my opinion in the case of leopard geckos, super hypo means absolutly no black spots on the body and neck at all...... That is my personal standard.... Hypo would mean considerably less spotting on the body like no more than 10 to 12 spots..... Again, that is my standard.....

Now, does Urban line have Ray Hine influence..... If not, I am suprized at the amount of SHTCTBs I have produced.....
