Caramel Okeetees??

Down with the sickness
Is anyone mixing Okeetee into thier Caramel Line to try and get some bigger black borders, or perhaps some "Reverse Butters"? It sounds like a interesting project, unfortunately I don't have any Okeetees, and I only have a pair of Ambers. I am just too involved with my Lavs and Miamis. If anyone is working on this though, I'd love to hear about any progress.
 
Carol,

Of the seven new babies that I got from Mrs. Love this year, I have 1.1 Okeetees and 1.1 Caramels, het. for amel & hypo. It will be a few years before these will be producing, but, if you would like a few F1's for yourself one of these days, let me know. Maybe we can split the clutch, if I'm successful in getting that to happen.

I've never thought of such a project, but hey, who knows? The F1's would be hets. for butter, amber, butter & amber, and caramel, wouldn't they? I don't know how the Okeetee would fit in other than another 'Normal.'
 
Cool, having another corn addict near by is really starting to be fun!
Yes I expect F1 would we normals with some varying Okeetee infulence het for caramel and possible het for amel and hypo.
Some times when outcrossing "normal" phases or another word I learned from Serp, "polygenic" (I hope I got it right Serp) animals, the kids can carry a lot of the strong traits, or not carry any, it all depends on luck.
We will have to see what kind of trouble we will get into in a few years.
