As I have seen: colored are from very different types... I know some Japanese breeders (in Hokkaido Island) and they have same types than white (upper) and my 2 :-) Whites from Chitose bloodline are very similar type!
@shibamistress psh someone doesn't pay attention to my Facebook posts. I'm moving back home in August. No need to import when I'm in the country of origin :P

@Crispy You are my hero. All those pictures you found are great.
Whites from Chitose bloodline are very similar type!
The first B&T pic Crispy showed is beautiful.
Love your B&T hokkaido and your Seta and Maru are beautiful and growing well.
I love the B&T myself, but the red is very nice as well as the white.
What important for me is health and temperaments first then coloring.
