And since that time this throw-back litter has left a remarkable iin- presion on my herd. By weaving them back and forth through the herd that ﬁne wide band. clear silver. and sparkle is common ra- ther than rare.

To build a really fine strain or 100 pair of breeding silvers takesa life- time. Alter ten years of good sound culling they just begin to get start- ed in the right direction.

Anyone who has been breeding silvers for several years begins to realize that lhe darker phase is dominant nver the lighter phase. It is easier to hired a dark fox
