RE: [Alpacasite] Color expression question (REPOST)

Hi all,

I saw a neat little cria (suri) recently that was bay black, with snips of
white, silver gray, and what looked to be fawnish-gray on her face. Her
mother is very similar, with silver in her blanket . Her sire is, I
believe, solid black.

My question for all ( and Elizabeth P.?) is: are color genes that are
physically expressed "more powerful" (for lack of a better term) than
non-expressed ones? Probably not a simple answer ...

Thanks---
