Thread: Question about colour coding

Oh Mick she has grown into a stunner & those lynx tips are to die for,how sad that she was disqualified,I think there is a very fine line between a blue & a black silver & it is really hard to tell from photos,I have just been & looked at Ruby's mum who is a blue smoke & quite honestly looking at the photo I can't see any difference between her & Ruby who is classed as a black smoke tortie...
If I was filling in the GCCF form I think I would use the tortie silver mackerel tabby code & take it that it is recognised as being the black silver,hopefully someone who shows with them will pop up & either confirm or tell you different,you could always put a cover note in with her entry next time saying that's the only one you could find but if it is different would they ammend, although with the FB if you put in writing on the form that she was a black silver tortie mackerel tabby & your number didn't correspond they would contact you ask you to verify which it should be & then sort it for you. Can you have a colour assessment done at the start of the next show so you know she is in the right colour class.
Good luck for next time she sure looks a winner...xxx
