Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

BEL with yellow markings?
Mystery BEL female. I have no info on the parents, all I was told was that she was purchased as an ivory at one of the expos in the area.
I've personally never seen an ivory with baby blues, so I figure that this must be a leucistic complex animal. The question is, which one? I know it's impossible to tell without breeding, but I've never even seen a BEL with a yellow line down its back and yellow markings on the face. The markings clearly have an ivory look to them, which I'm sure is why the original seller thought she was ivory, but again, the blue eyes make me think otherwise.
Am I wrong and this is an ivory? My first thought was a super pastel super mojave or pastel opal diamond or something like that, but the heads on both of those are still "dirty" and this girl is nice and clean. Her head is too white for me to even think she's an ivory.
Anyone produce BELs with yellow markings or know a combo that would do that? The good news is it's a female so she won't be an issue to breed out, but I also hate not having a clue.

Definitely not an Ivory.
I would guess either Super Lesser/Butter or Lesser/Butter Mojave.
Slight chance of White Diamond.
Regardless, as you know, breeding will tell.

I was thinking it was most likely a combo of two of the three most common bel genes (lesser, Mojave, or Russo) but haven't ever seen that yellow patterning on one. Not sure if pastel will do that but I dont think it does.
And I agree, as soon as I saw it I said that it's definitely not an ivory.

Oh OK, good to know. I thought maybe it was particular to a certain combo. I'll just have to wait and see what she produces. Thanks for the input!

I love her yellow markings! Whatever she proves to be she's a stunner, but I agree not an Ivory at all.

Thanks, I really like her too. She's a little skinnier than I'd prefer but I'm sure she'll be fine once she gets on a normal feeding schedule.

Her yellow face stripes are where my pastel ivory has black stripes She's really cute, Can't really go wrong with any type of BEL in my opinion!
