if the black is out of two blacks - but both grandparents were out of torts, then it's a 50/50 chance he carries tort. It's up to you whether or not the risk...
Knowing about the extension E or ee genes is really important. Here is the scoop with the Full Extension and Non Extension genes. Full Extension is represented...
Natalie, thanks a Million, that all makes perfect sense. I think I will try to find a Tort and see if I can verify that he carries the e nonextension gene. If...
Yep. Very true about the ee genes being hidden in a lot of colors. That goes for all recessive genes too. Just like non extension, you can have Dilute,...
Yes but I would not mind to have a dilute or a chocolate pop up here and there, at least those are showable colors. Its that recessive e that ends up giving us...
in marked breeds, the breeders cull from the nextbox often. That way their money and resources are not spent on non-showables. Non-showable colors can also...
Yes, true. Actually, my daughter has a snake and feed it mice, but we have not been able to come to grips with feeding it our bunnies. We are so small, only...

Not in JW's. Lilac Martens are showable. I think there is a breeder that has applied for a COD on Lilac otters but it will be quite a while before they can...
Ok, I follow you now, lol. Lilac otters are showable for mini rexes. I think Im going to do do the same with the black buck that has tort in background. Im...

Your answer: It depends. ;-) Does the bkn blue otter carry self (a^t a)? Non-extension (Ee)? Japanese gene (Ee^j )? Does the black carry the Japanese gene...

*Hi Jim, Thanks. That is the only thing that had crossed my mind... but then I realized it couldn't be that either because, isn't a tan 'at' as well? Just the...
Lily, Correct on the at for Tan.  Tan is just missing the cream colored belly.  Genetically, the Otter and Tan are the same, just that the Tan has a lot...
