AMCA26 and NSWchainsaw would be able to comment here. In answer, I highly doubt there are any left, despite the photo you saw and asked about....

I don't think it's misleading, the mutation certainly exists. It's where the photo was taken that counts,not who posted it online.

I've heard only very few breeders in Aus. have them, don't know if that statement is true.
