I'm fairly new to boas and I've been reading up on how breeding different boas results in the different morphs.  What I'd like to know is what traits are co-dominate, recessive, and dominate.  Obviously albino is recessive and anery appears to be as well.  Are pastel and hypo both co-dominate?  And if pastel or hypo or co-dominiate, what two forms are they a mix of?  Maybe we can get a disscussion going about general genetics in boas, I'm not sure if breeders are reluctant to share their findings or not, but I seem to have a hard time finding alot of information beyond the basic recessive traits in boas.  Thanks!
