I am planning on Breeding from my pait of chipmunks a white Male and a natural female. If they do breed will I get some white and some natural babies..or all natural? I have heard conflicting stories..I have been told that if the natural colour female came from a pair of natural colour parents...all of her babies will be natural coloured even thought the father is white! But if the natural colour female came from parents where one of them was white she will produce some or all white offspring! FOLLOW?? Is this true or False?? The thing is I don't know if my natural colour female came from mixed colour parents or same colour? I am hoping for some white and some natural? Also the cinnamon colour chipmunks are they a true chipmunk or are they a cross with a red squirrel? I have also been told that they are a cross breed and are slightly bigger than a genuine chipmunk?? HELP! If they are atrue breed chipmonk does anyone know where I could find more info on these and some piccies on the web!
