Brimmer 220 Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Greys, collared and blacks regular, but only whites were when we were kids, and they were xbreeds, wild from a farm. Nice to see the unusual one's, would like to see the wild whites! Quote Link to post
Cornio 0 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 It's pretty hard for a prey animal born white to survive long enough to see adulthood. They're a sitting target for predators unless they live in the snow. Quote Link to post
