Thanks for the reply Julian. What would the genetics
be? I thought the mother was dove (I suppose she
could be saphire, if that is very close to dove).
The other pups in three litters were:
3 black
4 nutmeg
2 dove
3 red fox (1 regular, 2 lightened)
and this one.
Is it possible for a molt to take several months or to
never complete?
