Remember, unlike some of the parallels, this is not a simple color morph. Its not harmless linebreeding, which is a politically correct term for breeding animals that ARE closely genetically linked that in NORMAL husbandry is normally done to get rid of undesirable traits and genetic imperfections. I grew up on a ranch, and on top of 16000 chickens, we also bred dogs and horses.
This is breeding to exploit a genetic abnormality, not color, but an actual absence of a couple layers of epidermis.
