Hypos & Classics or all Classics??

Asbit

So Many Morphs...
Hey all been a awhile since I have had time to post but I have been still reading a bit late at night before bed. So I am having two delimas and both involve the possibility of the Hypo gene.

This is my first year of breeding and have adopted one clutch and had one clutch of my own. The adopted clutch came from a teen who was cohabbing (petstore told her she could) and her female ended up gravid and then subsequently died as a result (long story). The female was visually an Amel and the dad a Classic.

What hatched from the 10 surviving eggs were, 5 Amels or combination of Amels and Hypo Amels and 5 Classics or combination of Classics and Hypos. The last Amel(?) is still working it's way out of the egg and it looks some what different than the other four in that it's eye is very different and some of it's color appears to be different (we'll have to wait and see).

Here are two pics of a Classics & suspected Hypo, can you all tell me what you think. As well (sorry could not get the little bu**ers to hold still enough) the suspect Hypo has a very light brown eye and the Classic has a dark brown eye. I did the best I could with the pics, but to my eye the suspected Hypo looks even more like it is "in shed" yet it was just born yesterday or Thursday night.

In the second picture don't mind the smutz on the Classics head, it is just dried egg fluid, which washed right off).

Thanks every one.
 
They look like classics to me. I don't any of the indications for hypo. There is tremendous variation in normal corns. Eye colour isn't enough to judge by. They both appear to have definite black borders. The belly should be black and white, as well. Hypo would look more brown or even greyish.
 
They all look classic to me. Looks like they have solid black boarders. Hypos should have reduced black to no black. Belly checks are usually brown or light grey instead of black on a hypo.
 
Thanks guys, the help is appreciated. Will have others for you to compare in a day or so from my clutch.:D
