wow, motherclucker, how do u pronounce sundgau? her color must be super rare because by the records, her color in pygmies does not exist. i read a little thing on the internet by a guy who had studied color and genetics in pygmies, and he called it a "reverse". from what i read a reverse is when a goat comes out only two colors, and in cadee's case, where the black is should be white, and where the white is should be black. i have no idea what her "normal" color would be called either. by the way they are purebreed pygmies, so its not the result of a cross. taters pa, what kind of goats are those?
i just found info on sundgau alpines, and the only way she differs is that she doesnt have a white belly, and she is an agouti. (the black has white hairs all over, but its more concentrated on her shoulders and belly.)
