What genetics make pumpkin? I've only had one other pumpkin once, & that was this boy Butters.View attachment 3285195

What makes you think he’s pumpkin? His color looks the same as a New Hampshire red.

For the longest time I've thought he was Black tail Buff, but he had too much brown color in the tail.

New Hampshires are Red, Butter's isn't.

In the picture, he looks like a New Hampshire red. I’ve seen the NHR breed and others with the brownish color on their tail, I don’t think it proves that it’s pumpkin. Unless pumpkin is just another shade of red/buff?

Butter's Tail.

But Butter's isn't Red. Not even a Rusty Red.

Only other picture of him I have when he was young. He was butchered last year.

Did you see my question? He looks red to me. I’m talking about phenotype, though, not genotype. Do you mean that he’s not genetically red because he lacks mahogany? If that’s the case, aren’t New Hampshire reds not genetically red either?

Yes, I saw your question.
Differences between Butters, & a New Hampshire is Butters seems to have a diluter, while they don't.
