No, I said,

but people are taking regular yorkies, and breeding them to make them parti carriers. With two parti carriers, your odds of getting a full parti are 1 in four. Remember this is just statistically speaking. It doesn't mean for every 4 puppies one breeder has, he'll always have one parti. One breeder could produce 4 pups that display the parti trait while another may have none. . .

What the biewers call "splitters", the parti breeder call "carriers" The odds are one in four of producing a parti if both parents are carriers. You would get one Parti, one dog that was not a carrier and two carriers out of every four dogs, but as I explained before this is statiscally speaking, it doesn't mean out of every 4 dogs any one breeder will get this, this is just the odds.
