Well, as of yet, there are only 3 proven lines of genetic blackback.. The het red, the laceback, and RDR's blackhead. Considering that my female is too dark on top to be a laceback and too light everywhere else to be a blackhead, she must be an excellent representation of a het red. Therefore, I'm calling these het reds unless any future breedings prove otherwise. Either way, she is a proven genetic blackback. So there are 4 gargoyles and 3 others that may be fire het reds. I should know for certain on the fires after they shed but all 7 babies are definitely genetic blackbacks.
After the babies shed I will get good shots of them. They all look so cool.

Oh and there is also the black velvet that NERD is working with. In order to better identify these, I am contacting the breeders who work with these blackbacks. Hopefully next season I will have a super to show.

Re: Sneak peek!
Not trying to rain on your parade, as those are some great looking Cinnies. Not to mention that the dame is smoking too, but if she is a Het Red, Lace black back or Green Pastel.... You didn’t hit the Gargoyle.
Yes the Het red, Lace Black Back and the Green Pastel are all genetically black backs, but they are not the only genetic black backs. Also the Blackhead is not a black back as it is supposed to have a gold pin stripe down its back. Markus Jane has also been working with a morph they call a Black Velvet since at least 2005. Not sure about the NERD version but they appear to be different.
There are genetic black backs that are just that.... Black backs. We happen to have a few black backs in our collection to include a Cinnamon.
Personally I think you have proven your beautiful girl to be a nice Genetic Black back ... at a minimum. Maybe you can still prove her out to be more than just a beautiful genetic black back in the future.
Congrats again on those beautiful babies and on proven that girl genetic! :gj:
