The above poster should of said the original founding animals of the lines had a color wash to them. Most orange ghost today don't have the orange wash. I have only seen pictures of ghosts with anything resembling green, but I have seen quite a few green ghost line. It more of just a name rather than an actual identifier now. Mixing lines doesn't matter, assuming they are compatible. quality is going to be as good as the animals being paired, doesn't matter what line is assigned to them. All of my stock is mixed lines and I produce hypos that are more orange than 90% of what I see labeled as orange ghost.
