It really is fascinating. Recently I've been wanting to do more research into how the lethal white gene works and how lavender works (forgot the actual name of that gene)
I started studying color one day when I was laid up sick for a few weeks That was 7 yrs ago I find the subject fascinating The most color genetic study has gone into rabbits & horses There are parallels between all mammals
@Tahiri Recessive is when one gene hides behind another or doesn't show of there is a single copy of the gene The capital letters mean they have it all lowercase means they do not have it prlprl is no Pearl gene therfore causing a pearl horse
Thank you Lydia - I thought that too, but it's lower case because pearl is recessive. Whearas ToTo or Spl are not recessive. :D I'll try to find two apricot horses and try it that way, thank you!
prlprl from my limited knowledge basically means the absence of the pearl gene. To get an apricot I usually just breed two already apricot horses together, thats the easiest way I find, LOL
