[QUOTE="Aero, post: 512625, member: 2076"] if only it was that simple. the dilutor gene determines if the animal is diluted or not. the dilutor color gene bank determines what shade the animal is if the dilutor gene is present. the gene bank is a set of genes that are most commonly the colors you mention, but after a few crosses can get a red and sometimes a dark red mixed in. if this dark red is in the mix, you can get an animal that is red to the eye (probably brown/red) but has a black gene. this only happens when the dilutor gene is present and in rare circumstances where the color gene bank has been mixed up. Usually a dilutor gene will throw the colors you mention. again, I didnt say the animal looked like a diluter (mainly because of the blaze); I said it's possible to have an animal that looks red and carries the black gene. either way, there is little chance the calf is a Bushwhacker.
