    Definitely not a calico. Very pretty though.

    Re: Normal or Calico?

    Calicos have a yellowish band around their pattern, are usually ringers as well as having the white patches in the pattern.

    Your guy has none of the above so no on the calico.

    Looks like a normal to me. Actually, it looks like my normal, who has quite a bit of white/yellow creeping up her sides, too.

    Re: Normal or Calico?

    The calico has quite a bit white mixed in. It's common for normals to get black speckling as they age.

    Here's a calico
