September 2019: |
dam - Zephyr Jennifer Eckles, aka Freckles (chocolate and buff(?) mottled silvermane, probably just due to a somatic mutation but very slim chance of a new marking mutation) sire - Zephyr Mushroom (black silvermane, not owned by Zephyr) litter 2019-FRE : A test mating in case Freckles' mottling can be recreated. If she has a somatic mutation then that won't be possible. Expecting a selection from black, agouti, chocolate, chocolate agouti, american mink, american cinnamon, chocolate american mink, and chocolate american cinnamon, in silvermane and standard coats, some dumbo, very small chance of mottled coats. |
