Classic melanin in the agate series.Agaat geel schimmel

General.                      Wout van Gils.
The color canaries belonging to this pigment group possess the first reduction factor that is responsible for the reduction of the brown phaeomelanin. The clear, fine and interrupted black stripe must contrast with the oxidized surface free of visible brown phaeomelanin. The eye stripes and typical beard markings should not be missing. Pigment dots between the beard stripes are incorrect.
