Butter or Lesser

hey guys wich of the 2 is more favoured?

as in that it gives better/more beautiful results in combo's

They are the same thing

ah ok, didnt realy realise that but is probably also because i am slightly colour blind so i thought it was me that made them look almost the same if not the same....

so sorry if it seems like a stupid question but sometimes i just can't trust my own eyes :P

Some people still think they are different, but I think majority have accepted that they are the same thing. No discernible differences

its not a stupid question, it is just asked a lot. The lines came into captivity in different ways. The few butter lines were imported like most morphs. Lesser however was a little more interesting. A platinum was imported, which we now know is a combo with the daddy gene and lesser, but when it was imported, we had no idea. RDR called it his platty daddy. The first breedings produced animals that did not look like the platinum, but were still different. They were called lesser platinums (which is now shortened to lesser). The daddy gene is very difficult to tell without the lesser gene, so it took years before it was finally figured out you could pair a lesser with a daddy gene and make the original imported animal, the platinum.

While it is pretty obvious now that lesser and butter are the same morph, back when people were trying to figure out what was going on with the lessers, it wasn't as obvious. Now we have plenty of examples, platty daddys and butter daddys and all sorts of evidence to show for it.

I think a lesser with butter is tastier then butter that's lesser.:gj:

@ OhhWatALoser, thank you very much for your reply :)

grcforce i could't agree more :P
