The genetics
Hypo
(Evans/Dutch Hypo) — Hypo is a recessive, true hypomelanistic mutation that reduces rather than eliminates melanin. Dorsal blotches come out brighter and more saturated — often orange instead of brown — while the dark eyes are retained.
Arctic x2
Superarctic is the two-copy (super) form of the Arctic gene — not a separate gene. It produces a stronger, more dramatic expression of the Arctic look: brighter, cleaner, often with very strong black-and-white contrast. It occurs when a hognose inherits Arctic from both parents.
What makes a Purple Glow
- Two copies of Hypo — recessive, so it only shows when paired up.
- Two copies of Arctic — the 'Superarctic' super form.
This describes the genetics of the animal itself — not the odds from a pairing. Outcome odds are the Genetics Calculator's job.
