| This is the colour you get when you combine the shaded gene (**c<sup>chd</sup>** or **c<sup>chl</sup>**) with non-extension (**ee**). The animal will //look// white but if you compare it against a true albino (rew) you will see that the eye has colour (albinos have NO colour so all you see is the pink from the blood vessels in the eye) and that there is a slight ticking on the coat. The colour of the eye and ticking will provide a clue as to whether or not it is black, blue, chocolate, or lilac, although it is difficult to distinguish black from chocolate and blue from lilac as so much of the colour is removed by the shading gene. | This is the colour you get when you combine the shaded gene (**c<sup>chd</sup>** or **c<sup>chl</sup>**) with non-extension (**ee**).
