Hi all, can anyone elaborate on the description of a corn snake I've seen? It's a masked hypo. Just wondered what this means, and if anyone could explain! Thanks very much :)

it means it is visually masque and hypo. It has both the masque and hypo genes. hypo means reduced black so wont have big black borders and generally hypos are brighter, masque causes a zipper like effect on the belly and generally a grey head.
