Lynx adds a rusty or cream saddle with graying points on the joints of the legs, forehead and cheeks, as well as the base of the tail.
(nLx) Single Allele
With a single allele, Lynx is generally restricted to the shoulder and face only.
(LxLx) Dominant
In double allele carrier, Lynx can affect more of the face, down the whole back, legs and tail.
(G/+G) - Gradient Modifier Gene.
Lynx should be one color for the most part, outside the gray joints if it lacks the Gradient Gene. "G" allows up to two colors to be used in lynx and "+G" up to 3.
Colors can be pulled from the Natural Accents Slider or be natural to the coat.
Edge:
Edges of Lynx can be Hard, Soft, or Blended.
Variation:
Lynx can have it's own nuance or a slight fade transparency into the coat.
Lynx sits below most markings, affecting the base coat.
Graying points on the legs can have holes that show the base coat color.
Lynx can have 2-3 color gradient if affected by the 'G/+G' gradient modifier gene.
Lynx can use colors from the Natural Accents Slider as long as the color is natural to the coat.
Lynx can create complex edge shapes as long as each section remains in one piece.
