Hi Suzy, My best guess is, if neither parent shows the fault, then it most likely is recessive. So both parents probably carried it. I don't know if it is...

You do realize that orange is a chestnut agouti with the non extension gene, just as tort is a black tort with the non extension gene, don't you? Deidre Deidre...
Dear Suzi; there is also the possibility that not these kinds of deformity are caused soley by genetis. There are a number of possible ways in which events ...

Melissa, I dont know if this is a charlie thing but I can tell you that I have a 5 month old doe that I got a 6 weeks old - she was fine until 10 weeks when...
I have a question. I bought a doe from about 10 feet away because I liked the look of her body, face and ears. I knew I could use her for those things anyway....
Melissa, I wanted to add something to the -in my experience- very good advice given by Jane. I have also found that a weak solution of Oxytetracycline in ...
Thanks for all the info and the culling advise. This doe seems to be a very mild case and is a really nice type otherwise. I've had another judge examine her...
... Are there steel genes (Es) in the lionhead breed? I am guessing there are, and your descriptions sounds much more like steel than 'bad squirrel'. Steel...
Thank you to those who have given me advice. I dont really believe the myth that Charlies are not as in good health as any other rabbit. It is there coat...
