[QUOTE="DOC HARRIS, post: 646510, member: 1683"] Just for the interest of some of you with whom I have discussed the fact that I raised Chinchilla's some years ago, the incredibly SMASHING WHITE fur of the underbelly of the Agouti (Standard Grey) Chinchilla was dictated by 14 different Alleles!! It was the almost impossible "BURDEN of Selection" of breeding stock to attempt to [i]blend[/i] all of the genes together to arrive at the MOST optimal matching to achieve the Whitest of WHITE, and at the same time retain the spectacularly HIGH number of fur hair follicles per square inch without losing the agouti fur pattern! I even attempted to develop an Artificial Insemination protocol for "Chins" to accelerate the development process! Didn't work! DOC HARRIS [/QUOTE]
