A couple months ago I was given a lovely black Californian buck and two does of my breeding that the buyer could no longer keep.
I bred him to a couple of my AmChins and the results are in and apparently he carries two copies of the steel gene :shock: since ALL twenty three kits are silver tipped steel :x
I guess Silver Fox aren't the only breed to be infiltrated by the steel gene :rotfl:
I don't even think he is self black, or even a self carrier, since i know the one girl has a self, so I should be getting at least a couple blacks in a litter of 11 :shrug: Two more of his litters are due and we'll see if a self black shows up.
Not what I was expecting but I am pleased as punch since Silver tipped steel is one of my favourite colours
