Re: Types (colors) of Cavies? (please HELP!)

"broken" defines they have no specific color pattern. these babies are usually from litters where the parents are different colors/breeds. for example, my girl is golden agouti, white, and red. she is a broken breed (not tricolor) because her gene coding isnt "pure". do you get it, kind of?????? its hard to explain, but basically, there are both dominant and recessive genes from both parents present in their DNA which means coat colors of broken babies can never be predicted.
