Thank you very much. I like your approach, except for one point. hahahahahahahaha



You base your terms on your animals, the two. And that is wrong. Your animals are suppose to fit the terms, not fit the terms to the animals, which is what your fighting against with others calling them annerys.



You are right, Hogs have reds, yellows, and black, and as you mention, there is some mystery as to how and where some brown comes in.



You are also right, most axanthics, are arrery as well, but not all. So those two genes can be linked genetically or not.



The animal pictured may well be annery and not axanthic. As the white is being replaced with yellow. And the belly is not normal, but has a WEAK yellow, nothing like a normal hog with I believe the red strengthens the yellow. Also the question comes to the surface, is it a genetic recessive or an extreme normal? Time will tell.



Annery is lacking red

Axanthic is lacking yellow, right?



Those terms mean the total genetic lack of. Not less then(normal I presume)



To date, it appears the common approach is to name something like annery or axanthic, after someones line bred animals. Which I believe is wrong, an axanthic is a exanthic, no matter where its found. As is an annery.



phenotypically, the label only has to fit the label. No red= annery. No yellow=annery. No red or yellow= annery/axanthic. Yes?



What would be the best way to get some private pictures to you? Thanks again
