RE: New Fur Tiger! - Huckleberry
Okay Ladies and Gents, this proof is a fun one. I think it's good and Shannon has indeed proved that Tiger Huckleberry is dominant to Bali Flame.
This is a complicated proof. Here is my version of the explanation:
We have a mom, Justyna, who is direct from the starter: Tiger Huckleberry hiding Burmilla CSS or Burm Lilac (or better).
We have a dad, Barrie, who’s is showing Bali Seal and who is hiding Bali Flame. We can see that he’s hiding Bali Flame from pedigree one because he produced a Bali Flame kitten (with Jusyna) and the Flame could have come from nowhere else but him.
But the same pairing, Barrie and Justyna, also produced a Huckleberry showing cat.
So there are 4 combinations that these cats could throw.
•So one scenerio is that they both throw hidden, Barrie throws Bali Flame and this produces Bali Flame over Burmilla CSS (or Burmilla Lilac Shaded or whatever it is that Justyna is hiding).
•If Barrie throws Bali Seal, and Justyna throws the Css, we’d see the Bali Seal.
•If Barrie throws Bali Seal, and Justyna throws the Huckleberry, and Huckleberry is dominant to both Seal and Flame we we would not see the Seal. And that COULD be what we are seeing here: that Huckle is dominant to Bali Flame AND Bali Seal. Maybe.
But at minimum we have the 4th combination:
•If Barrie threw Bali Flame and Justyna threw Huckle and Huckle is recessive to Seal, but is dominant to Flame it would cover the Flame. If it were recessive to Bali Flame, we’d never see Tiger Huckleberry as a showing fur with this set of parents. It must be covering either the Bali Seal or the Bali Flame or it never would have shown in any of the throws.
Ergo, the fact that it appears as a shown offspring of this pair means that it must be dominant AT LEAST to the Bali Flame.
