: : Okay... I think I may be giving up. :)

: : 1)  I bred a white tailed male Tux to a Female Tux.
: : 2)  *All* male children have yellow tails (4 males).
: : 3)  Bred a couple of those children together.
: : 4)  Their children *all* have white tails (4 males).
: : 5)  Bred a couple of those children.
: : 6)  One male with a solid yellow tail, and two males with a

: Oh Dear God.....
: Could it be the tux some how has a base color or a wild gene <I seem to recall reading something about this, but I cannot remember if it was a supposition or in some animal...> and since it is a German Tux = blue ::shrug:: just an idea after not enought sleep and too much caffeine.
