haha, good question. basically it is a crossbred. I believe it was out of a boar called "out cold." he's an all white crossbred boar at real mccoy genetics. the red gene is a recessive gene and doesn't show up very often in crossbreds unless it has some duroc in it. I had a bluebutt sow bred to a black exotic this year, and one pig out of the whole litter was marked exactly like that pig, the rest were hamp appearing and bluebutts. It's just the genetics of the color gene.
