Hi all, been browsing this site for the past month or so, drinking in information about corns before i got one.
I bought my lovely Cinders just over three weeks ago and she's settling in fine.
She's a hypo bloodred and i just want to know the difference between a normal bloodred and a hypo bloodred? |

Yes she will be a lighter brighter red. But won't necesarily become all red you may still be able to see the saddles. |

Hypomelanism (Hypo) is a gene that reduces the melanin (black) in a snake. |
