I personally do not own or have seen a rare colored yorkie. so I cannot speak about health related issues with them. but I do realized from this site that most parti yorkie breeders are charging more simply because supply/demand retio is low, I just cannot justify that to myself. I would rather pay extra for a yorkie that has very close to standards features.
I do own a blue/grey color chihuahua, which is considered "rare" in chihuahuas (with the exception that AKC recognizes all colors in chihuahuas). her vet has told me about all the extra skin issues with these "rare" colored ones, and my girl is only 4 and is already losing tons of hair! so "rare" does not necessarily mean good!
