If you look close at the pic with the Paradox Ivory and Paradox Black Eyed Leucistic you'll notice that the White on the Black Eyed (one with peppered cream running down her back) is VERY white . The Ivory Paradox is NOT white and he is an "off white", alot like the color of vanilla yogurt ice cream actually . In the right light he looks like a faint Puma actually BUT he is not, nor is he a Super Stripe, he is an Ivory. I won't be surprised if he is carrying another gene, BUT it won't be an allele to Yb if it proves to be genetic. Even if the Paradox is nongenetic I'd still think he is as good for breeding as any regular Ivory as I doubt he produces Normals when bred out and if he does make Normal looking babies ( say they look more like normals than YB's that is) I'll be holding back several of his daughters to linebreed back to the Paradox Ivory dad and also to breed to my other Paradox Ivory to see if anything lines up that way. No harm in trying the way I see it, could be something there, that part I agree with you on Ben.
