Its true.

Something else that I thought was kind of funny. My buddy imported the first black back balls (the ones that are said to produce all black balls, melanistic, in their second generation). He wanted to call them 8 balls because of the pattern but before that somebody called them black backs. I would just prefer to have a solid name, something we could all agree with in the first place then all of this.

The same could be said with salmon, there are several varieties of salmon and even more names.
