Caramel Arctic Superconda · Frosted Arctic Superconda
Includes Frost, which is currently under review by the hognose community. It's in the Public Morph Guide so you can browse it — the look is real and well documented; how it inherits is still being worked out.
The genetics
Frost
Recessive — an animal must inherit two copies for it to show visually. A single copy is a hidden 'het' carrier.
This gene is currently under review by the hognose community.
Arctic
Arctic is an incomplete-dominant gene that tends to brighten, clean up, and cool the overall appearance of a Western Hognose. Arctic animals often show a lighter base color, sharper contrast, cleaner pattern, brighter coloration, white outlines around pattern elements, and speckling/flecking compared to non-Arctic animals.
Anaconda x2
Superconda is the two-copy (super) form of the Anaconda gene — not a separate gene. It produces an extreme reduction in pattern on the body, often resulting in a nearly patternless or greatly simplified appearance. The head stamp remains. It occurs when a hognose inherits Anaconda from both parents.
What makes a Frost Arctic Superconda
- Two copies of Frost — recessive, so it only shows when paired up.
- Two copies of Anaconda — the 'Superconda' super form.
- One copy of Arctic — the single-gene Arctic form (incomplete dominant).
This describes the genetics of the animal itself — not the odds from a pairing. Outcome odds are the Genetics Calculator's job.
