you bring up a good point and the answer to the question is YES Ralph himself has bred his line of butter to a platty sib (normal looking) and produced the "Daddy" version. It has been proven that to produce a "Daddy" with either lesser or butter bloodlines you have to have the normal sibling or Daddy animal that carries the gene.



Also since the lessers from Ralph have been around for quite some time now, where are the platty's? I think it's been long enough now that a lesser is a lesser no matter who it comes from. Now i will admit, Ralph does produce some of the best looking lessers which he should since he is the founder of the morph and has been selectively breeding them longer than anyone else and he's a great guy as well. If you haven't been serviced by RDR you don't know what you're missing. (wait that don't sound right, lol).
