No one knows for sure how many of any percentage are on the American
continent. For that matter, I'm not convinced that the country of Barbados
has any idea of how many "fullbloods" are in Barbados.
But progeny testing is the only method available right now that can help a
breeder correlate phenotype to genotype, regardless of what percentage
Barbados Blackbelly the genotype represents. I probably should have used
the word "correlates" instead of "matches."
