Several individuals related to the Calico line have gone through similar color changes. Loss of brighter colors, more of a
"brown out" but with white flecking showing up in the crescents. Spike is the only one I know of from the Savannah x Fluffy or Daisy x Fluffy litters that has done so. Most that changed were from the Ann x Fluffy litter. So far I know of 4/16 individuals that changed in the Ann litter, 1/12 in the Savannah litter and 0/15 in the Daisey litter.

Is this related to the Calico Gene? Too early to know. Will be interesting at some point to breed two of the browned out animals to see what the babies do.
