"the only person that did an arabesque x arabesque breeding with "different" looking results was Jeremy Stone. However you're right, nothing really stands out as a definate "super."
Just my opinion, I would not be surprised if Arabesques turned out not to be a genetic morph at all, but rather a Locality of it's own."
I thought only Steve Hammond bred Arabesque X Arabesque, and there were some babies that were missing saddles, and these are theorized to be the supers, time will tell.
And Arabesques ARE genetic, so I'm not sure what you meant by your second statement. It is just not known if they are a co-dominant or dominant mutation.
Their heads are different, Arabesques, along with a few other "Colombian" morphs have very unique traits. It may just be from geographic distribution, or it may be from the mutation. A mutation could affect th structure and shape of the head.
