SuperStripe Ivory? Has it been made yet?

SuperStripe Ivory aka Spectre Ivory...

Has it been done yet?? Photos?

Those odd Ivories posted a couple threads below have got me wondering just what the SS Ivory looks like.

Thanks for any info!

I could be wrong but I believe that specter and yellow belly are allelic, so a specter ivory would not be possible.

You may be referring to the superpastel superstripe, which was produced by the Bells this summer? It's kind of disappointing. But nice to be using in your breeding projects!!...

You are correct. YB and specter are alleles. Also YB and het puma, YB and het highway. These are all in the YB complex.

Some BEL complex examples include Mystic, Mojave, Lesser, Crystal etc... This is why it is impossible to make a Crystal Potion or Super lesser mojave etc... Alleles combine and work as a super form. Only room for 2 copies of these genes on the locus. Pretty sure that's how it's described...

Ivory throws all YB
Super Stripe throws 1/2 YB, 1/2 Specter

Lesser Mojave BEL throws 1/2 lesser, 1/2 mojave

Potion throws 1/2 mojave, 1/2 Mystic

Crystal Mojave throws 1/2 special, 1/2 mojave

Crystal Mystic throws 1/2 special, 1/2 Mystic
