This pair is a bit of an experiment, as both parents are pearl. Pearl isnt supposed to be bred to pearl. For some reason, when offspring get copies of the pearl gene from both parents, the babies die in utero, and are absorbed. Why I've chosen to pair them, is on the hopes that my logic is solid, and that any baby not getting copies of the pearl will be born, and will be healthy.
Because of this, I expect a small litter (if any). I feel I have a basic understanding of the genetics, so assuming babies get a single copy of the gene, I think I can expect
pearl, as well as
mink, maybe
agouti,
dumbos, and hopefully,
harley coat.
