Default New here:D! Confused with coat textures.

Hi all!
I'm new to YT and just happened upon it on the web while searching for the site of the breeder we just got our yorkie puppy from a month or so ago. I see one of your members got one from her also. Anyhow, I have read so much on the topic of the coat and got interested in the coat texture test (with the flashlight.) Unfortunately, I couldnt get the puppies eyes to show any color but the same dark brown/black that they naturally are.
I will however try to do the test in a darker room.
To your question, I have read so much on the web on puppies showing different colors at different times and how much the angling and lighting depends on the outcome that i'm starting to doubt the test will ever really be to reliable. On a sidenote, I also have seen quite a few pics of the adult yorkies on the web and in the photos that i have come across, i does seem that the rule does ring true in most cases. red=nonsilky, green=silky.
