Ok, question, and sorry to sound stupid here, but this one is puzzling me....so lets say I take two ebonies and breed them together, and one is a violet carrier and one is not. My kits now have a 50% (give or take a few percent) chance of being a violet carrier. But, how would you know that? I guess thats one of those things you wouldn't you would just say "He's a medium ebony possible violet carrier?" And then the second question, when does that violet carrier gene come into play and become dominant instead of recessive? I'm assuming by simple genetics it would be when you have two violet carriers together, am I right?
And is it correct that a sapphire and a sapphire can only produce a sapphire, there is no chance of a standard gray at all? And there is no lethal factor (from what I read correct me if I'm wrong) How does that one work?
If anyone just has an article on it maybe I could read it and learn more, rather than sitting here and writing it all out lol.
