The genetics as originally (and some currently) written here seem a bit confused. First, ratios of one variety to another are always averages, so I've removed the "breeders get different ratios" info. For example (not exactly parallel case but it'll show what I mean), on average there are something like 1.1 girls born for every 1 boy. However, that doesn't prevent there from being a family with 5 girls (like mine) or with 7 boys (like my brother-in-laws), with none of the opposite sex.
Secondly, a recessive gene does NOT mean that it cannot perpetuate naturally. E.g., blond is a recessive gene in humans and yet it has survived quite nicely in a natural state state (because humans breed indiscriminantly among themselves with no breeders controlling it). So either there's something missing in the article or I've completely misread the info.
There is a modern day breed known as Hairless Khala.. The article states it to a past breed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ltshears (talk • contribs) 22:59, 6 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Have added a citation for the breed, unfortunately the article has been redirected as it fails GNG, as sources become available it can be recreated. Kind regards, Cavalryman (talk) 03:32, 24 April 2021 (UTC).[reply]
