How to make black pewter clown?

When you have a Visual Recessive animal, lets say a Clown male... Any eggs you produce that he "sire's" will be 100% het for Clown at least. The only way to make Clowns with him is for the Dame to also carry the Clown trait, either visually or be 100% Het for Clown. If your female is say 66% or 50% Possible Het for Clown and they dont produce any visual or Homozygous, Clowns the first year than all the babies will be Possible Heterozygous until provin out or more years of breeding prove the original mother NOT to be a Het.

So ANY Homozygous version of a Recessive trait guarantees the offspring to carry the gene.... So if you take. Male Clown and breed it to a Female Axanthic ALL your babies will be Double Het for Clown AND Axanthic, 100% for both! So you would then keep 1 or 2 males and ALL of your females from the clutch, and breed them back to eachother 3 years later. Now, say you get 3 females, grow them up and breed them back to their brothers, you get 2 of them to go for you on the first year. ANY baby that isn't a Homozygous or Visual examples of the Axanthic Clown combo then become Poss Hets again.
Your Clowns will be 50% poss Het Ax
Your Ax's will be 50% poss Het for Clown
And all your Normals will be Poss het Clown, Poss het Ax, or Poss Double Het, with NO way to know by the look.

Thats the easiest way i can think of to put it. Again keep doing your homework until you understand Recessive Traits 100%! Go onto Forums like this one and search througb old threads, Lots of ppl have asked the same question ALL over the internet. Lots and lots and LOTS of reading is a good place to start. Its not something your going to understand right away anyways. Bug i hope this helped...
