melanosis uberis in pork belly

Never heard of that. Great info thank you
-
I did not read all the fine details but my question is why would the melanine be in the fat (dermis layer) rather than the epidermis?
Dr_Pain these deposits are seen along the mammary glands. I’ve never seen it anywhere else on the animal. I’m not sure exactly why the melanin shows up there and not other places.

Deepwoodsbutcher Now that makes a LOT more sense. Should have thought about it. Thank you ma’am!

Deepwoodsbutcher yes since this was in the mammary area I would expect the male I plan to harvest in a few weeks would not have this. Or did you also see this on males? I would also be interested to know if this is found on the lighter colored breeds or if this being a black pigmented breed that is what makes it predisposed.

Ridley Acres Hey man, just thought about something. If they have dark chocolate melanin around the nipples does that mean that the sow will produce chocolate milk ROFL!!!

It the whipped cream from when they run low and it starts to sputter?
Isn’t it interesting that a brown cow can eat green grass and produce white milk

Ridley Acres it also appears in males since they also have mammary glands. I’ve seen it in dark and lighter breeds

Thanks, I wasn’t sure if it was related to milk production or not.
