08 Butter question

tko75 Jul 29, 2008 01:47 AM

This is my first year with a clutch of Butters. I was wondering if its normal for them to look almost snow with maybe just a slight hint of yellow?? Thanks

I don't know - but since Caramels often hatch out looking almost anery and develop their yellow as they mature, your observation is what I would predict.

Yup, normal. They yellow up like normals red up as they age. Almost white background with dull mustardy colored blotches. If not mistaken, they are "snows" in a way, because they require the caramel and amel genes.
