I breed strictly colorpoints, and I have noticed that it must be the
aac(*)c(*) combinations that creates that sleeker, silkier coat. All my
pups are form the same parents, and the only ones to ever have that
beautiful, soft coat are the Burmese, Siamese, and L/CP Slate. Any of the
other colors have a *normal* (more coarse) coat. That includes the
following colors I have produced: L/CPA, L/CPGA, L/CPN, BEW (maybe), and
LCPDEH. What does everyone else think?
