Imagine this guy in another couple of years, if he doesn't make 240 Douglas I'll eat my hat.

All animals have evolved to eat dust in the land of oz .

Sweet cheers. So a dope I am ha ha

Here we class:

Normal;


Black;


White;


and Menil.




though there are in betweens like chocolate, fawn etc. that aren't technically recognised.

Interesting. Are they age based phases or genetic/blood line deternined??
Think the ones round here are normal and blackish

Or seasonal

It's genetics, it's not exactly a lottery as it's hereditary but some colour variations would be dominant and some recessive.
In different parts of the country they have different predominant colours. In tas they're almost all black, in Vic I've seen two black ones in my life. White and menil are the rarest.

Seasonally the normals turn grey through the winter.

Genetics mate, i have learnt them as Common (normal), Melanistic (Black), White (white lol) and menil.

I have yet to shoot, or see for that matter, a white one but have the rest in my belly

Cheers mate, learn shit everyday does me
