Observation

So i have seen many pictures of hog's from breeders from different countries. This may seem very odd but it caught my eye. I only bring this up b/c i have not seen this around here. There hog's have a very white white backround color. To me it seems like alot of there hog's just have a higher white contrast. Is there a reason for this? I am i missing something? Or i am i just crazy.....

I havent noticed. It could be that multiple animals came from a single line that had light coloration. I will look for that.
