I beg to differ just a bit. My CP Nutmegs are not white. I have bred 6
from my colorpoint pair, and they all start out white, but then *BOOM!*,
they molt and there is no mistaking them. They get a very dark brown
(almost black) nose and feet, and the rest of there body becomes covered in
"nutmeg" ticking. There is a noticable white undercoat, but from a distance
they look like they've been playing in hot chocolate - a beautiful, rich
brown.
