just thinking...
I think the one underlying commonality is the actual "color code", what they look like depends on what the code is, what we call them is the rub...
we should just call them what they are...
Wh+Wh+ Br+Br+ yw+ yw+ e+e+ pi+pi+
Wh+Wh+ Br+Br+ Yw yw+ e+e+ pi+pi+
Wh+Wh+ Br+Br+ Yw Yw e+e+ pi+pi+
red range Wh+Wh+ brbbrb Ywyw+ EE pi+pi+
Red breeds true including red range tux
from what I can gather...
scarlet does not breed true
true "scarlet" is actually scarlet (italian)
"scarlet" is SF for Yellow and SF for "tibetan" Wh+Wh+ brb brb Ywyw+ Ee+ pi+pi+
2 (SF) (heterozygous) makes for "split" pairs on two colors = many combos
scarlet= scarlet (italian) is a red range that is heterozygous for yellow (italian) where a "homozygous yellow (manchurian) red range" is actually a scarlet manchurian
scarlet manchurians
Wh+Wh+ brb brb YwYw Ee+ pi+pi+
Scarlet Manchurian
will breed truer than scarlet (italians) because they are homozygous on the yellow gene, no "split" pairs except the Ee+ gene. = less possible combos.
