Thank you!

Snapped these at NARBC in Chicago last year.. not the best but its somethin!

I think this one is considered a T motley argentine, could be wrong:

Awesome! Thanks for the pics!
Is that a pure Argentine or was a Motley bred to an Argentine?
Is that normal colored one a Motley or a Motley Argentine?
Do you have any pics of the 75% Salmontines?

Those are PURE Argentines (NO crosses). Pure T Albino Argentines and Motleys.

When did they pop up?
Do you have any pics?
Are you working with them?

Aaron,

I believe PK is working with them. Look at litter #60 on his birthing record. His are the John and Amy Mack line and are supposed to produce the Motleys.

Hope this helps.

Actually, that's what got me to ask the question. I had heard of these before, but Pete Kahl's website seemed to imply that the Motley trait had spontaneously popped up in Mack's line of T Positive Argentine's which I knew were pure Argentines.
Man, you gotta love this stuff, huh?
2 mutations in the Argentines, Anery Longicauda, don't even get me STARTED on the nics!
If someone could get those 100% suri albinos and prove out these possible hypos, we’d be ROLLIN’!
This is so cool.
Thanks again, Jason!
Aaron
