    Chocolate Sable Compatibility

    I have long since thought that these two genes would be compatible, but had to know for sure. They are, and here is the group I just hatched.

    I 2nd this question ...

    Definitely looks like it should be the compound heterozygous (allelic sable/chocolate "super") animal, but I'm still curious to see if breeding trials do confirm that ... Mainly because of the issues with sable combos and supers that I haven't quite heard of in chocolate combos (unless I'm just niave of them, which is entirely possible).

    Also, the upper-middle guy looks a little different from the others -- looks to me like he might have some mojave in there ..? -- or am I just seeing things?

    Looking good either way!

    BOOM.

    Re: allelic, can't know for sure until you breed the combos. If you get only chocolates and sables from a combo x normal pairing, then it's probably allelic. Any normals or combo babies resulting would mean it's not.

    Whoo hoo!!! So glad someone finally tried this! I have a female sable



    and recently saw a REALLY NICE male chocolate for sale but passed him up because I did not need another project so similar to the sable. My decision would have been different if I had any indication that the genes were compatible. Thank you!
