[Jacob-list] WHITE LAMBS

[Carl Fosbrink]

Since a Jacob cross is black with usually a white spot on it's forehead I 
have been told that a Jacob with close to 15% dark is more likely to be pure 
Jacob than one with close to the 85% dark. I don't know about the all white 
other than an albino. Albinos can occur in any animal. I don't think all 
white with blue eyes instead of pink would be an albino, but simply an all 
white sheep.
