Does anyone know of a book or website that tells what boa morphs are produced in what way? By that I mean what morphs are dominant, what are recessive, what are co-dominant. Then what morphs mixed with what morphs produce another morph. Bad wording, but I know with ball pythons if you mix certain morphs with other morphs, you get a 3rd morph.

Im new to breeding, I just picked up an albino female, a sunglow female, and 2 regular males, all het for albino and sunglow. Those I know are recessive traits, beyond that Im a novice and would like some more info if possible.

Sunglow is the combination of homogenous albino and hypomalanism. Hypomalanism is also known as salmon.

Albino is Recessive
Hypo is an Incomplete Dominant. there are hypos(heterogenous) and Super hypos(homogenous) but they can be quite hard to tell the difference between them hence the incomplete part.

Gilbertboas.com has a good break down.
I can’t really find any site to give you more. If you need more help PM me. I rarely check these boards.
