BWC taking a break

JasonRobeck Dec 29, 2010 01:16 PM

Here's a shot of a couple of my hopefuls for next year. My 08 Boa Woman Caramel seems to only like to work in the morning. Afternoons and evenings find him lazing about like this.

I've got my fingers crossed for triple hets. Hypos het Kahl Albino het BWC.

Good luck. Interesting pairing. I wonder who else might be using the BW caramel X Kahl.

Good idea with the latest info I've learned about Oculocutaneous type 2 (OCA2) Kahl and VPI or BWC or Blonde can still possibly reside on the same locus and interact with each other.

What this means is that Sharp Albino may not be a T Positive(OCA2) type of Albino
as people are assuming because of it's interaction with the BWC.

Oculocutaneous type 2 (OCA2) - is caused by a mutation of the OCA2 ('P') gene resulting in variable amounts of melanin synthesis.
The hypopigmentation of the eyes, skin and hair varies from fair to normal (formerly called tyrosinase-positive albinism).

I'll be looking forward to seeing your results !
