question about reduced patterns

I was just wondering about reduced patterns. i never really paid attention to his pattern because he is just a normal. but lately i noticed that he has what i think is a reduced pattern. can some one take a look at these pictures and give me some conformation...

Are you talking about the top half dorsally or anteriorly??

A reduced pattern is one that lacks the alien heads.

beautiful!!

Quick Q: I know ralph davis is working with genetic reduced patterns, and I believe I saw cue post some as well... is anyone else working with these and is there a little more known about them after this season?? thanks.

I would say that he is a normal with a nice reduced pattern. Now, genetic Reduced are proven-out through breeding, like black-backs, granites, and other normal-esque morphs.
