About
The Hypomelanistic dragon is a light or pastel shade.
They’re born bold and brightly-colored – however, as the result of a mutation that causes the body to produce less melanin (the pigment responsible for a dark color in hair, skin, and eyes), they grow paler with age.
This morph has clear nails and a wide range of skin tones, running the gamut from pink to yellow, powder blue, pale orange, and snow. [1]
History
Hypo was the first bearded dragon morph to be introduced into the reptile community.
