About
The Strawberry gene has recently been proven allelic to hypo. While superficially similar to hypo, they tend to have a more ‘contrasty’ look with brighter reds as this trait apparently does not affect the reds, or may even increase them. Since Strawberries have been masquerading around as hypos for decades, large numbers of them exists and may form the basis for a bunch of pinkish colored lines of various morphs. Already, some lines of Coral Snows have been proven to be “Strawberry Snows”. [1]

Being allelic to hypo, we have a situation similar to that of Ultra and Amel, in which specimens carrying one mutated allele of each type at this locus take on an intermediate appearance between the two ‘pure’ types. [2]
