Super Hypo has less no spots, and Hypo has few spots.

Super Snow has different eyes, spots, and color from Snow.

But what is the difference between Engima (1 Copy) & Engima (2 Copy)??

For example, what is the visual difference between :
Tremper Engima (1 Copy) &
Tremper Engima (2 Copy)??

Super Snow is the homozygous form of Mack Snow. Because it is a codominant, or more accurately incomplete dominant, trait, there is a visual difference between the heterozygous and homozygous form. Enigma is a dominant trait, meaning that it is fully expressed whether the gecko is a heterozygous or homozygous Enigma, there is no visual difference between them.

Hypo is spots retained with in the darker body bands.Super hypo is NO! body spots.
Super in hypo is a polygenic trait.Hypo is dominant so Super hypo is (Polygenic + Dominant).

Recessive.
Normal.
(HET) are visually Normal.
(HOM) are visually differant than (HET).

Codominant.
Normal.
(HET)Visually differant than Normal & (HOM).
(HOM) visually differant than Normal & (HET).

Dominant.
Normal.
(HET) visually diffferant than normal but the same as (HOM)
(HOM) visually the same as (HET) so differant than Normal.


HET = (1 COPY).
HOM = (2 COPY).

Mack snow/Super snow = Codominant.
Enigma = Dominant.
