J Darcy 5,871 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 melanistic dont want to be a kill joy but its menal when talking about fallow not melenistic... I don't want to be a killjoy either, but i think you've got confused ...Menil is the 'typical' colour of fallow, with a chestnut pelage and white spots. Melanistic is totally different thing, melanistic is a dark pigmentation as can happen in many animalsbirds, etc, most commonly the pheasant. Quote Link to post

old timer123 367 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Fallow and sika are known to cross breed so could possibly be a hybrid, i havnt seen the photo so dont have a clue. I think its sika and fallow what x breed anyway!! Sika and Fallow can't interbreed. like a said sika an red they are known to breed Quote Link to post
Simoman 110 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Im still amazed at th folk who think sika and fallow can breed and i have also been told by lurcherfolk that roe and fallow can interbreed too, slightly worrying really what some folk think............. Quote Link to post
