I already have Harlequins and want to get American Chinchillas after I get out of prison (college). We've had AmChins before, and I want to help get better body type on both the Harlies and the AmChins.
I've HEARD (don't know, but heard) that the Californian pointed color was connected somehow to the Chinchilla color. If I got some Californian does and bred them to a AmChin buck, would I get properly colored babies or would it completely screw up the Chinchilla color?
I also once bred a Black Magpie Harlie doe to a NZW buck (with black in his background) and wound up with chinchilla babies. Does this mean that Magpie is connected to Chinchilla? And, being connected to Chinchilla, would be related somehow to Cal color?
I'm asking because if I'm going to get does of a different breed and color I want them to be the same breed, it'd be nice if they are all connected and I can work with them all together.
Please don't answer with the letters like A_bb_E_? stuff because I can't understand it, it's like reading German to me. I've tried, and failed.
If I'm wrong and breeding my Harlie and AmChin bucks to Californians would not produced desired results, what could I use that would work how I want it to?
Thanks!
