Quick Look

Colourpoint smoke is the blue dilution of colorpoint beige. Like cpb, it is heterozygous in the c-locus. In colourpoint smoke, the mouse has one himalayan gene ch and one extreme dilution gene ce + blue dilutions (d/d).

In order to get colourpoint smoke, one needs to introduce the blue dilutions to colorpoint beige - or simply mate a siamese blue point with a smoke (blue dilution of beige) and you'll get a whole litter of colourpoint smokes.
