I actually have some animals in my collection from this bloodline, as well as my own line that exhibits a similar trait that is completely unrelated to anything in the U.S.
It's a really cool trait - very hypo-ghost like, but I'm not sure how much of the genetics have been nailed down to a "T" as there seem to be varying appearances within the same lineage.
Certainly an exciting short-tail morph!

P.S. Smulkin...at this point it's actually no longer "all the curtus" - they were broken up into 3 distinct species in 2001. If you'd like, I can fwd you a copy of the paper - it's a really cool read!![]()
