Description
Sapphire Cross fox: this is a rather interesting cross I like to call it sometimes a saph fire cross, simply because it is a cross between a sapphire and a Fire and ice. I got it under Moon Glow however I wouldn't quite call it that LOL. pictures don't do it very much justice it really is a Sapphire mix strictly blue cross markings not pearl!
not sure what I'm going to do with it, its on the 50/50 shelf. I want to keep it I love it but sometimes I wouldn't mind making a premade out of it.

Oh, by the way, since you have an interest in ranch fox genetics, I thought you might like to know a little bit of information I found in a rare fur techniques book I bought the other day. This book was published in 1948. You probably already know the information but I thought it might be of interest!
It states that there were two breeders who started the ranched stock of silver foxes and they were Canadian breeder Charles Dalton and another breeder Robert Oulton, who mated wild, silvered animals from Prince Edward Island (off the coast of Nova Scotia in the Gulf of St. Lawrence). The interesting thing is that these silver foxes were originally quite different from today's silvers and were primarily black with only modest silvering on the rump. American consumers started to demand the more heavily silvered furs when they emerged, whereas Europe maintained interest in the blacker furs for longer.
The book then discusses the origins of the platinum fox, which was 'originally discovered and bred in Norwegian territory' and imported from that country under the patented name of 'platina' fox. When it started to be ranch bred in the US and Canada, the fur of that type from these places became known as 'platinum'.
It looks like the white mark type foxes started to emerge around the time of the publication of this book, as it also mentions 'white face, ring neck and white patch in both silver and platinum fox'. So it looks like it was around this time that the number of different mutations was really starting to explode.
At this point, it would seem that red fox wasn't much used, so it looks like it was a bit later on that red fox started to be used in hybridisation.
Anyway, just thought that would entertain you! This book is quite fun, it details all types of different traditional ways to work with fur types... including some that are now completely inappropriate to make coats out of, such as monkey, leopard, etc. There's even an advert in the back for a pelt supplier specialising in leopard and ocelot, which of course will no longer exist!
