Genetics: recessive color- and patternmutation

Clown is a recessive pattern mutation. It messes up
the pattern severally. There are reduced Clowns with
only a messy stripe on the back but there are also
Clowns with a lot of speckles and striping on the
lateral sides. Personally we prefer the messier ones.
We have a Bell Pastel 100% het. Clown male and two
100% het. Clown females so hopefully we breed our
own Pastel Clown in a few years. Our het. Clowns
were fathered by a VPI Clown.
