If you have not studied enough classical genetics to separate the clap trap from the reasonable things it will be confusing for you. I consider it a jumbled...
also i do not know obviously whether my kits with white blazes have cardiomyopathy or malignancies but none had any of the other abnormalities like the fused...
no i am interested in how behaviour can be affected by genetics as well and also how health problems are associated with genetic differences such as the white...
