Nelli 249 Report post Posted May 1 The original article that Wai Eyre put out that was on Facebook (and their responses to subsequent comments) stated that genetic testing confirmed the registered parents and that's she's a de novo mutation. In other words she's a freak and her colour didn't come from her parents. However, she has a 50% chance of passing her colour to her offspring.
