What effect does the ce gene have on pink eyed varieties such as champagnes?

 

[Jack Garcia]

Usually none because the C and P loci are linked as they sit on the same chromosome (#7). What this means is that where ce/ce is inherited, P/P is also inherited almost always because they're "linked." Only very rarely is the link broken and ce paired with p. I think this would be called pink-eyed cream, but I'm unsure about that as there are a few ways you can make pe-cream.

The same goes for all C-locus recessives.

This is why argente creme (proper argente creme, Aw/Aw cch/cch p/p) is hard to get.

Ah thats interesting thank you.

I would tend to think that the c^e c^e would dilute the fur and give you a non-albino pew.

(Oops, there I go thinkin' again...)
