not all of the offspring from the original Platty Dad carry the special gene, or that the gene that makes the Platty Dad show up is too hard to identify therefore all of them could be carriers. According to the website it took breeding the lessers back to a normal sister to get the Platty Dad.
There has been another Platty dad produced and it was posted here, but I can't remember who the person was.
I have a question about the whole Butter/Lesser same thing issue. Has anyone produced a Platty Dad from a butter to normal sib breeding? I think they are different but I myself have never seen them in real life side by side. To me it just seems that the butters are just that buttery looking, whereas the lesser is just that a lighter shade of platinum. They are both beautiful none the less
