i am very excited bout one of my breeding projects,,,,
last year i bred two full stripers and got 100% fully striped offspring so im figurin something whether dominant or what was going on...
so this year i bought 1.1 leos from a tangerine x HQR red striped male.. these were produced by ross payan at leos anonymous.........
now what will i get?? i have no clue, if nothing else simply gorgeoous babiesm considering the parents/// shoot if i get an abbarant i would be super thrilled.... so yeah ok i want red stripes BUT this is very exciting... i mean hoiw is this line of stripes working... is it selectively bred,, is it genetic in nature like simple recessive or dominant... regardless this is one fun and exciting project.........
here is the male.....
here is the female (she is gravid)
i also plan on breeding him to a full stripe obtained from K and N
and also a jungle but i havent decided which one.. i have two..
i am interested in seeing how this gene , if it is one, works...... could these be "hets"?? dont know.... do they carry the gene but have to bred to either a stripe or jungle for it to be expressed??? no clue, thats whats so fun!!! hey if nothing else i should get some nice little tang babies.....
shoot im happy with healthy babies regardless of what they look like!!!
comments? suggestions?? experiences???
