Gao-Xing Genetics

I was looking at the registered Gao-Xings as I am interested in breeding one and I noticed that WasabiWonton has two different color genetics listed, one typed out on the website and one on her data card. Does anyone know what's up with that?

Another question: Mitsuko and WasabiWonton seem to have the same coloring but WasabiWonton has two stars next to her color genetics and Mitsuko does not. Is that just because Mitsuko is a standard wyrm so she got a little more detail with normal genetics?

In general, Gao-Xings are considered genetically white (rryybb).
They can be any color of naturally occurring jade and produce any color of naturally occurring jade in their offspring.

In some cases, where they have body color, they will get the genetics of the body color.
This works the same in Imperial Fus.
So you can breed for body color.

The two stars next to WasabiWonton represent a variation on the body color (aka. one of the 'hidden traits'.)

Mitsuko has multiple colored fur specifically because she's a standard, not because of special genetics.
Standards usually have at least two-colors of fur, if not more.

I picked a Gao-Xing as a gift for a young friend of mine. (Her parents will register the wyrm). The card shows a lavender head, but a white body. The wyrm herself has a lavender head and a lavender body too!
Is this something that will show in her genetics, or just an anomaly? (Mind you, I'm pretty sure the girl's parents are not going to allow any breeding, so it may not matter.)

That's a matter of D choosing a different color fur than what was originally requested for that Wyrm. I'll be updating the card when it's registered.
