Sorry if this has been asked before, but which colour do I put in the sheet if my cat has a hyphenated colour on their profile?

@NightLustrous

Hi! You always put the first color :]

I love this sheet! one thing, though- r3 is marked as tail tip and toes, but it's actually tail tip, toes, and tie.

thank you so much for the sheet!

havent used this sheet in a while, & im trying to gene this kitty and i am uh... mighty confused

[C] [NN] [LL] [BOFD4] [YYTT] [???C] [??] [??]
all is well up until the white spotting section. i dont really know what im supposed to put in for "0 white possibility" & "white marks - none." i'm getting albinos from him with 43107 but i dont know what value that translates to on the sheet...??? i'd appreciate some pointers if you can! :"3

hello! i fiddled around with your cat on my own sheet and heres what ive learned:
Buthomar has YY0C as his white gene sequence! you were getting albinos because cat 43107 has hidden albino!

basically, your cat does have his white pattern showing (from the YY for white and white recessive) but since he has zero as his white value he is showing as NN??
cat 43107 has the white gene sequence of NN10?, and when you predict the kittens for the pair, you get YN?? as your potential kitten, where the number can be anything from 0 to 10

so for putting the values into the sheet: 0 white possibility asks you to take a (rough) percentage of the amount of potential kittens you see with NO white spots. in your cats case, it works out to 9% with no white spots and that gives us an output of white - yes, white recessive - yes

then you figure out the cat's white type FIRST and white marks SECOND. depending on the cat it will be easier to figure out the white marks number by either testing 'against' a cat with 10 or 0. figuring out the white type first allows the sheet to give u a handy chart with both the white chart of the reference cat you're using and your own cat.
in your case, Buthomar has the classic white pattern, aka YY?C (which is handy because you only have to look at one chart :3)

last, we move on to the white marks. since we know that Buthomar has YY as his white pattern, but no white marks showing, we can tell that his number will be zero. but if you wanted to double check, you can test him against the cat with zero white (aka "white marks - none"). when we check the potential kittens of Buthomar and the white marks - none cat, you will not get ANY kittens with white. that confirms that Buthomar's full white gene sequence is YY0C!

i hope that helps!
