Offspring odds

No numbers for this one.

No inheritance mode has been recorded for Skin colour, so no offspring odds are given. Guessing one would be worse than saying nothing: a breeder would plan a season on it.

What this rests on

A peer-reviewed paper identifies the variant behind this morph.
