"From breeding a Platty male to a Butter female. Not many eggs......I'm hoping for some platties and maybe a "white snake" which would be a combo of the two traits. There were 2 slugs in this clutch. ( 04 butter f # 3 ) "

Once again, there is no possible way at this point that it could be an allele to the Lesser gene.
Hmmm, I am completely confused. While this breeding is only a week old, give or take, some analysis by someone smarter than me is definately needed. Not sure I completely agree with you yet though. Ralph clearly states in that clutches video that anything bred by a platty daddy carries either A) the Lesser gene or B) the "daddy" dilute

Well that doesn't work in this clutch due to the fact that there is a butter that doesn't carry either a daddy gene or a lesser gene. I am in no position to question Ralph on anything but something doesn't give here... As I wonder if the butter in this video isn't an actually an odd looking lesser... or if the whole theory of that normal siblings all carry the "daddy" dilute isn't necessarily the case.
