Thanks

	Morph A morph is a color or pattern variation that is proven to be genetic. Common morphs include albino, anerythristic, gentically striped, Hypomelanistic, and many others. Morphs also include combinations of simple traits such as "Sunglow" which is Albino and Hypomelanistic. These traits may be recessive traits, co-dominant traits, dominant traits, or created through selective breeding (ie Pastel).

<-------click on the genetics/morphs link to the left over there...if you don't find what you need...then do a search.
If you want to make snow boas you have to breed boas to show both the albino and anerythristic traits. If you want sunglows you need to breed them to show the albino and hypo traits.
Check that link...good luck!

	Hypomelanistic Hypomelanistic - a genetic reduction in the dark pigment Melanin.

snow boas = albino x anery = double het for snow boas when bred together you get anerys,albinos,snows,hets,normals

sunglow boas = hypo x albino = hypos het for albino when bred together =
super sunglows,sunglows,albinos,hypos,super salmon hypos,normals het albino,
and when a hypo het albino is bred to a het albino
sunglows,albinos,hypos,normals

	Heterozygous Heterozygous - the animal carries the gene for a genetic trait but does not outwardly demonstrate the trait. Example: A boa that is het for albino looks normal but carries the albino gene. When it is bred to another het for albino boa or an albino boa, a percentage of the offspring will be albino.

	Hypomelanistic Hypomelanistic - a genetic reduction in the dark pigment Melanin.

	Anerythristic A recessive genetic mutation in which the animal is void of red pigment.
