Hi everyone!
I've a question about colour genetics of basenji.
I have read that Agouti Locus give red (ay ay or ay at) and tricolour (at at), and K locus is black dominant.
But which the fula black gene is?
I have read that some breeds (sheltie, german shepherd) have an "a" recessive that in two copies give a black dog without black parents.
Is it the gene of fula?
Are there specific researches or documents about fula black genetics and, in general, basenji colours genetics?
Thanks at all.

Wili-which is Bluestones Ubora Wili Duara. His mother was bred to a brindle, I believe. Johnny's mother (Dalji's Damisi Dhati A Duara was bred to Bluestones Wild Buckwheat (which is the brother of Wili's mother).

No dog is perfect. If the male you are looking at has a lot of great qualities in looks, character and in health, and he compliments your female well, I wouldn't worry about the light nose or eyes. Yes, the pups could inherit them, so that's a choise you will have to make 🙂 I wouldn't exclude a nice male from breeding only based on the colour of his eyes…

My Abby does that, when she is ready to blow her coat she turns kind of brown on the sides but the hair on her back that she stands up when freaked out stays black all the time.

The 'Fula tris' expression is not normally stern in my opinion. The hardness in some Basenji expressions often comes from the eye colour - lighter eyes seem stern I think, especially if very light. I'll try to remember to bring a photo to the next show (please excuse if I forget though - I've got a lot to deal with at present). I do agree with you that melon pips can soften expression though.
