Here goes.... Sire: aa-B-C-dde(j)Enen Dam: Aa-B-C-Dd-e(j) Offspring: Broken Red: A-B-C-Dd-eEnen Broken Cream: A-B-C-ddeEnen Blue Jap. Harley: A-B-C-dd-e(j) Black/Orange TRI: aa-B-C-D-e(j)Enen Black Jap. Harley: A-B-C-D-e(j) Took me a while to get that far and I don't even know if I'm right. I had a little trouble with the Torted Blue Fawn TRI...how is that produced by a Broken Black and a Blue That's the part that really didn't come out right for me. « Reply #2 by Peggy » -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Okay, if the sire is a torted tri, that means he is a self, so all offspring will carry the self gene, even if they are agouti. There were two non-extension offspring, so both parents carry the "e" gene. I found it odd that none of the offspring were self, considering the dam carried it. (Maybe the next litter... darn those averages!) I listed all the offspring as "Aa", since you never mentioned torted tri/harlie in your description of the offspring, but did do so on the sire. All the offspring received a "d" from the sire, and "en" from the dam. Until test-breeding the tri and harlie offspring, it won't be known if they are "ejej" or "eje" Sire: aa B_ C_ dd eje Enen Dam: Aa B_ C_ Dd eje enen Now, if I remember correctly, Cream is a diluted orange in lops. (I don't do lops, so please ignore my lack of knowledge on the term if I am incorrect.)

But, you missed a few things. I'll point them out: #1 - For the sire's genotype you put: "aa-B-C-dde(j)Enen" You missed the "e" gene after the "e(j)" gene. He has to carry the "e" gene in order to produce a red and cream. #2 - For the dam's genotype you put: "Aa-B-C-Dd-e(j)". You missed the "e" gene on her also. She also has to carry it in order to produce a red and cream. Plus, her last part is "enen". She is a solid and all solids have that genotype. You got the brkns right. #3 - For the brkn red's genotype you put: "A-B-C-Dd-eEnen" . You missed the other "e" gene. She has to have 2 "e" genes inorder to be a red. "e" is the most recessive gene in the E Series so, she has to have 2 of those. Also, she has to carry the "a" gene after the "A" gene. She has to carry the non-agouti gene because her dad does. Also, for the brkn cream you missed the second "e" gene and the "a" gene after the "A" gene. #4 - For the black/orange tri's genotype you put: "aa-B-C-D-e(j)Enen" . Her A Series genes are "A" and "a". She has to have one "A" gene to be a correct tri, like she is. She has to carry the "a" gene because her sire does. Other than those few minor mistakes, you did a good job. Peggy - You got all of them right. « Reply #6 by minilopsincali (me) » -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ashlee wrote: "I had a little trouble with the Torted Blue Fawn TRI...how is that produced by a Broken Black and a Blue" I forgot to answer this question. Well, his brothers were a blue and a black/orange tri. One of his parents had to have been a hidden steel (A_B_C_D_E(s)e) and the other parent had to carry the harlequin gene. A rabbit can genetically be a steel but, not look like one. When the "E(s)" gene (steel gene that is) is paired with the "e" gene (non-extension gene) the rabbit looks like a self. If it was genetically a blue steel it would look blue. |
