That's what I've found out as well. WOBP also has it listed as a Dominant gene, but no picture. As it is, I ended up purchasing the girl. She's north of 700g, so I have a while to figure all this out. From what I am told, and I have no reason to doubt, she's pure Red Gene and comes from a line of animals that their keepers have been able to isolate the genetics so there is no Blackhead involved. Is it a shot in the dark that anything earth shattering will come of this? Of course. I just couldn't pass up the opportunity though. Who knows what it'll look like with the right combo? Only time will tell I suppose. Till then I'll keep researching it and see what is out there.
