Hey Jim

So are the center picture and the animal on the left in the bottom pic possible hypo animals, or reds? I understand that the top pic is of a possible hypo animal since the chin is colored. It is a nice illustration of how you get blacks mixed with other colors in one litter. I'm still wondering if you would get straight black babies from a black on black breeding if both parents have black genes, and the same with red parents. From what you guys have said, that may be irrelevant to discuss in US collections since the gene pool is somewhat muddy, so I may be beating a dead horse. I've just had too much time on my hands during the holiday break. I do find what you guys are doing extremely interesting. I found a wonderful website on genetics and I've been dusting off the cobwebs in my brain and I will be watching to see what kind of break throughs you guys have this year. Thanks for the info and the pics.

Derek
