Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Line breeding is done a lot to prove out new mutations. I would just try to avoid it long term. Best to outcross in the future but a few times doing line breeding should be fine.

Hi Rex -- the pied male and het pied from the same clutch should be fine...it really is almost taster's choice on that. I think I'd just ask the breeder you are getting them from what the background is (like are the Dam and Sire siblings..etcetera)
Best of luck with proving out what ever you get!

Rex.. I would have to agree with Susan on this one but make sure that you check on the parent's of the clutch... Good Luck with them and hope you get lots of babies from your pair once you decide what to do and make sure you post lots of pictures
