hypo = salmon?

I feel really stupid asking this but is a hypo boa the same as a salmon boa?

Sorry but that didn't really answer my question.

I don't thionk so. I believe it's a case of 'all salmons are hypos but not all hypos are salmons'. Basically the less black of a hypo allows the red to be seen better, but a little red = hypo while a lot of red = salmon. That's my guess based on some of the reading I did after I got Mario.

all salmons are hypos but no all hypos are salmons, ;) salmons are a line of hypos that are more red in color but the only way to know your hypo is a salmon is from the breeder.

short answer is yea they are the same thing, the only difference is the breeders who 1st introduced the morph called it salmon and line bred the rest from there. so if you have a hypo that came from the original lines then its a salmon, if you dont know the parentage then its just a hypo but both technically are the same snake. the only thing that tells the two apart are who you buy it from.

Thanks Everyone. I am looking at a breed group of 1.3 the male is albino and the females are salmon het albino.

3 females is to much for 1 male (boas anyway) the odds of having a bunch of slugs is high with 2 but 3. The females would be at risk as it is harder to deliver a slug than a snake. Egg bound becomes a threat like this too. The litters would be small even if they do take .Get the group and buy another 1-2 males. Read this.
