As someone who has just recently become interested in breeding this is the exact video I needed to see, in depth explanation with multiple examples and it didn’t take you years to get to the point. Thank you!
Awesome video to explain information that is not intuitive, but makes perfect sense with this clear, basic explanation. The Big letter, small letter seems backwards (would think big letter positive or gene present), so thank you for explaining. Also, amazing illustrations. Gives a great starting point for understanding coat color information. Thanks so much! First of your videos I've seen, subscribing and watching more!!! (now if you could do the same with physical chem or advanced calculus...😄)
Congratulations on the Chanel, you guys are doing awesome, I’m a breeder and I expect more videos like this, this will help my clients trying to buy Frenchies! Congrats once again and keep up the good work!
I have a blue fawn merle girl. Can you pls tell me what the best plan is to get blue/blue merle pups if my girl is ay/a dd n/co, No Pied, No Brindle (fawn/ black, 2x blue and 1 copy of choc)?
How to tell the difference between blue cream and lilac platinum? Do eyes glow red in flash video footage of lilac platinum dogs? Is having green eyes or brown eyes a sign to distinguish?
Congratulations it's so clear, now I crossing my female Brindle Reverse with a male Blue and Tan Merle. what percentage is there of the puppies being Merle??
Hey there was wondering if theres such a thing as a reverse blue trindle coat?. I know theres reverse blue coats and merle tri coats but i havent seen any reverse trindle coats i figure its possible though. Is it?
Very good video explanation but I've learned its really in Gods hands when it comes to producing the colors you want. Some times all the odds can be against us and we will still get a Elon or a Jeff Bezos.
There will always be some variation, but in terms of color you could end up with all the same looking pups if both parents had very similar DNA. If there are multiple carriers of recessive genes coming together, all of the pups can become very different looking.
The litter would all have the lilac genes (d/d + co/co), so there is a good chance. Other factors such as brindle and fawn could result if fawn in the case where one of the lilacs had AY on the A locus and Kbr on the K locus. Also, if both carried recessive e, you could end up with cream (platinum) dogs. In many cases you would end up with all or mostly visible lilacs.
@@BluFrenchibles Is there two colours of dogs that will guarantee lilac pups every litter or are you lookin at other colour chances no matter what with the pups on every case of breeding.
Two lilacs with no Ay fawn and no copies of e cream. Well, technically one dog could carry it. You could also use a platinum lilac and with a non-cream carrying lilac would produce a pure lilac litter. Same rule on the AY fawn.
This question can not be answered without knowing the DNA of the cream dam. She is e/e cream that is covering other colors as cream is like white paint. It covers all other colors. The lilac stud is d/d and either co/co or b/b but what else? DNA testing is absolutely necessary to answer these questions.
They could all turn out black or black/tan depending on if they have any copies of recessive genes. You could also end up with Fawns if they are AY on the A-locus. A lot of variables.
I am not familiar with the term, but it very well could be. It would be a visible chocolate and cream, cream dominating the coat color and carrying a copy of dilute(blue) that could become visible or produce a platinum in it’s offspring.
We've heard Blue Frenchie has diluted gene mutation that can potentially cause certain health issues. There's no blue Frenchie allowed in show dog competition. We're worried about this. Can you give more details? Thanks.
The best information we have on this topic is that it seems to have stemmed from self-proclaimed Frenchie connoisseurs that take issue with the price that rare colored French Bulldogs are sold for. In an effort to discourage the sale of rare or “fad” colors, many claims of health problems seem to have appeared with no substance. We’ve consulted geneticists and veterinarians on this topic and have found no studies or even antidotal evidence to support those claims. That is correct, they are not allowed in shows, but the AKC and CKC will register them as purebred.
Pied genes are recessive. The offspring must get a copy from each parent in order to show pied. The most common dominant genes are brindle and merle. Only one copy needed to show this color pattern.
Omg this is the video I’ve been looking for. Thanks for this information. I’m about to DNA my Merle but want to understand reading the results. Thanks again 🤗
We’re very glad you enjoyed it! Be sure to check out our latest video on dominant vs recessive genes, there are some very important considerations on breeding merles!
