there's not a single WWW not gelding in auction besides Adams auction right now

Unrelated but wow, there's not a single WWW-W stallion in the game currently

certain patterns, i.e splash, are more likely to cause deafness because the pattern is more likely to completely involve the ear and affect hearing

...no?

The pigmentation in the skin is used by the fetus as a map of where to put the organs & nerves
Thats why certain white patterns cause partial or minor things like blindness or deafness where as things that are completely white don't have any map
Lethal white foals when born often don't live because their organs are either wrong and or incomplete

ItÂ’s interesting how many species have Â“badÂ” white based genes

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

Ahh makes sense. I'll have to do some research into that topic - sounds fun XD

Think of it as the gene that controls pearl instead on the gene that causes pearl
Anyways that helped me

The Silvergrove

08:47:32 Wan | Wolf | Silver

Huh interesting!

Yes

Wait so lack of the pearl gene causes pearl?

@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

@Lydia
Pearl gens are like toner
If they have ot the horse is normal
If they run out of toner then they are pale or pearl
