Do Het Hypos shed clear as adults

Do het hypos remain to shed clear through to adults. I have a some females I produced a few years back and have always questioned if they were visual hypos with the sire being secretly a het hypo.
In the photos I have a shed from a normal (drinker) and a shed from on of the females in question and I am holding a shed from a hypo pied for comparison.
Any thoughts on this are most welcome

If you post some pictures we can help you figure out if the are indeed hypo melanstic. Would be much easier than trying to identify a snake based on its shed.

I hate to sound stupid… But I see patterning on both of those sheds

Not seeing anything in that animal that indicates it would be a visual Hypo

I’m in agreement with Travis don’t believe you have hypo in any of the pictured snakes.

Must be the het influence then.

There isn’t het influence with hypo. You just have snakes with washed out light pattern. I also see pattern on both of the sheds.
