No worries Aaron, a BWC (Boa Woman Caramel) is a type of hypo that looks like a T+ albino in boas that works in a single recessive manner. So to answer your question can you be a sharp het bw? No you cannot, that is how the first paradigms were created. Basically Boas was trying to make double het BW Sharps but got paradigms so after some breeding trials its assumed that they are allelic and thus because the genes reside on the same loci you can't be sharp het bw

Cool beans dude. I'm very familiar with alleles in ball pythons so I get it.

So you have a very interesting project! I'm jealous. Boa "dinker" projects take like 1 litter to prove out. So many babies.
