Purity of lines
Posted on Wednesday, October 1, 2008 by timothyyew
I honestly think I need to voice my two-cents worth.
Recently I have been asked about yellow-blue puddings, pearl puddings, mottled winter whites, and all sorts of interesting questions about new variants of winter whites.
I think that in the strictest sense of the word, there are only 4 colors associated with winter whites.
1) normal
2) sapphire
3) pearl
4) pudding
For those in love with color variants, might I suggest going for campbells, or syrians. Those are the lines with more color and fur-type variety.
FOOTNOTE: there have been breeders who do a pearl pudding variant, which is a result of, well, one pearl and one pudding parent. For those who are interested in those, might I suggest other breeders to buy them from. I don't do it. Thanks.
