Both Venture Free and Spellbound must carry the fawn gene, hence it's a 50:50 chance that Jack would have the fawn gene as well. Fawn pups jsut prove he is carring that gene. Black is dominant so any dog carrying both black and fawn genes will throw fawn pups to a bitch also carrying the fawn gene. Ratio of black:fawn pups ( as an average) will be 1:1 to a fawn bitch and 3:1 to a black bitch that also carries the fawn gene. (Both Miss Daiseys parents carried the fawn gene so it was 50:50 she would carry it as well; again her fawn pup proves she does indeed have the fawn gene.)

your right Tony both Spellbound and Venture Free litters were mostly fawn, with only 2 pups out off litters of 6 pups being black :thumbsup:

cant wait to see what colours your litter with moonpie and hellbound are going to be :thumbsup:

Ambers a bit of a colour oddity so the possibilities are, black, blue, chocolate, fawn and particolour of any of those.

Where does the chocolate colour come from in Amber?

Wonder if anyone knows of another colouring as unique as 'Unique' herself, white and brindle particolour with a black patch too !!!!! only particolour i have ever seen who is white and brindle and black
Sorry colour topic taking over here

Colour genetics give's me a migraine but the chocolate colour that Amber could possibly carry occured in her brother Edward owned by Michelle.

I recall asking Tony about Unique but then my head started hurting so I'll let him reply! :lol:

Debbie's master Twist had a rather unique marking over his eye was a black splodge over a parti colour patch if memory serves, and he was out of trouble spot so guessing him being white and parti would have gone back to What spot.

The strangest colour whippet at racing has to be Edward tho Jac's he really is chocolate colour lol no other dog about like him thats for sure!

Both Maddison and the ghd Homebird must have recesive b gene that produces chocolate because Hobgoblin, Ambers mother, was chocolate, as must Stewart, Ambers father ( chocolate is a dilute black -amber is fawn particolour and the chocolate gene doesn't affect the fawn colour. We know she is "chocolate" because her nose isn't black.)

Unique is more difficult to explain. You can't really tell if a black dog is brindle ( a black dog with black stripes) but fawn and black isn't common in whippets to say the least. ( Black and tan terriers are common) It's possible she is a chimera, which would be interesting .
