Amy Flemming and Sukie Crandel seem to have a lot of anecdotal data concerning longevity and health effects of Waardenburg Syndrome, Kitt and like genes that affect coloration of a ferret (that make the lightened colors, blazes, pandas, etc). They may know. I think I recall, conversations on here and the genetic ferret list about eye site problems in late adulthood in blazes and pandas, but I forget. I hope they or someone else that knows might answer. Wolfy Wolfy's site has MOVED to: http://wolfysluv.jacksnet.com/ [Posted in FML issue 3957]
