All the mutation experts. Loki is a year old now and has changed colors. What mutation do you think she is? The first 3 were taken today but there was an overcast.

I havent see anfsurfer in forever.
Some have said turquoise violet, violet turquoise and turquoise with a violet factor. Not sure if they all mean the same thing? Looking for a consistent answer

Yeah I've seen that pic too. Idk lol, I bought the harness that is made by that site but not sure on the credibility as far as mutation knowledge goes.
Understandable!
Loki's color is 100% Turquoise.
As for Violet and Dark Factors, it's very tricky for anyone to know for sure unless the breeder knew.
I say that because a Single Dark Factor on a Turquoise can look the same as a Single Violet Factor. And a Single Violet Factor with a Single Dark Factor can look like a Double Factor Violet with no Dark Factors.
If you understand genetics you can sometimes get your answers by the offspring from certain pairings.
But Loki is a hard one to call for me. If I had to guess...I'd say Turquoise with 2 Violet Factors (DF Violet Turquoise). That's just my guess.
He sure is cute though.
