Amchin x cinnamon. I got 2, 12week old chestnut does yesterday. A grey that seems to have flyback fur and a redder one that has rollback fur. I plan to breed them in to my american sables and later amchins I'm getting for fresh genetics since the rare breeds, especially sables around here, are quite inbred. All common meat breeds around here also have long shoulders so now the sables have that problem. Plus sables are a sport of the amchin. So I'm especially interested in the quality of their shoulders. Sorry the pics aren't great my husband took them with his phone and didn't get on level.

Greyish one

The shoulders look like the come out from the right place and they look wide enough. Get a top view when you can.
 
Top one is nice but looks like a steel? It would be better to keep these just for amchins though. They would mess your sables up!! It would be better to find a good hunky Californian for those.
 
American sables came from amchins so how is it going to mess them up? The amchin should have been used to bring back the breed not the californian which has the wrong type and fur. Amchins are just too hard to find.

She's not steel. Josh's phone pulls the brown out of things. For example this is a young sable that looks silverish blue in real life


This is the same genetics and color (on the left) taken with my camera

They are the same breeding, same phenotype, same genotype just a different exposure and quality.


The doe actually looks almost chinchilla colored.
