He was born in the U.K. in '02 from two Blonde parents. No exact locality data on the Blondes, except they were from Jim Kane stock, and they were related to each other. Which is why I believe this to be a recessive genetic trait that popped up.

With all of that yellow caliche layer covering the limestone in southwest Brewster County, it would make sense that other mutations (besides Blonde pattern) involving yellow color would be selected for in nature.

Thanks!
