May not be correct but its what i have gathered from what i have been told.

| | Subscriber | Join Date: Jun-07 Location: Sunbury,Vic Age/Gender: 37 | | | | Ive been told its fine to do as long as you cross out the bloodlines after about the 5th generation but Not shore if this is necessary or just done as a safety measure.Cheers Craig |

| | Sponsor | Join Date: Jan-06 Location: Newcastle | | | | Its a phylosophical arguement not a technical one. In mamals and reptiles it is called line breeding and may emphasise a heritable trait. The hope is that it emphasises the "good" trait rather than the bad. Different traits have different heretability so once the numbers are out there you can work out the likely progress in line breeding. The numbers and records with reptiles are so scanty which leaves a lot more to chance. |
