Everything is the same. They generally grow a little larger, but I have seen many B/W that are larger than some extremes. I have two extremes from Bobby and they are both amazing! Do you know who your babies parents will be from yet?

Good point. Big difference there.

they do tend to fall on the whiter side of the spectrum, some I've seen rival high white blues in their whites. personally, i like that a lot, but the real thing that pushed me to the giants was the size they have the potential to reach. i like my animals gargantuan! not that b/w can't get insanely big, but extremes seem more likely to.

Black and whites and extremes have the exact same potential, as do reds. It's a combination of parent size and food in my opinion.

The size of extremes is in my opinion a good sales tactic but overall not really true.
