Yes, it would be a Range Tuxedo - Range Tuxedos can have various white plumage markings just like any other Tuxedo. Look at the two pics I posted here of the two extremes in pattern. Also note that the one that is heavy white plumage has a marking under it's eye (cheek area) the geneticist I'm...
Panda was clarified to me last year. Read the description in the picture attached. In short I was told by the geneticist I am working with for the Coturnix Association if a bird doesn't display markings under the eye (cheek area) it is not a Panda and is instead heterozygous "dotted white"...
