Component genes
Also known as
True Sunglow
This morph's genetics are pending breeder review and may be refined.
The genetics
Albino
RecessiveAlbino is a recessive, amelanistic mutation in which melanin is absent entirely. The normal blotched pattern stays visible but loses all black pigment, leaving red, orange, or yellow tones with red eyes.
Hypo
Recessive(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.
What makes a Sunglow
- Two copies of Albino — recessive, so it only shows when paired up.
- Two copies of Hypo — recessive, so it only shows when paired up.
This describes the genetics of the animal itself — not the odds from a pairing. Outcome odds are the Genetics Calculator's job (coming soon).
