Yes. DIRE consequences, like being poo pooo'd on forums and such.
Lol, yes something like that. Good thing for this thread and for others who were able to take me aside and correct that misinformation. I want to be able to improve on what I have now and breed better quality chins, not make errors right at the start like what I was told to do.
The female that I have is an extra dark ebony by Jerry Lee who placed 1A & Reserve CH Color Sec. 2008 West Coast MCBA. She has excellent size (over 860 G)and conformation. She would have done much better at the show had some amateur (moi
) not gotten so overenthusiastic when it came to grooming. We will try again next year to see how she does.
We now also have a nice little Mosaic from Rivendell, she can tell me if this will be a good cross and will give us nice colour??
Our other female is a medium ebony, we are hoping to eventually breed her to the mosaic as well.
We have already spoken with the Cramers and will be getting some nice standards down the road and if I am reading this correctly it will be ok to breed the mosaics to them in order to improve on the whiteness of the bellies?? Trying to get this all figured out here.
Jerry was also mentioning something about improving the veiling, but it was the end of the day, I was tired and had to rush off to pick up girlchild number 3 from a service project. Girlchild number 4 was with me, was tired and hungry and so I didn't catch all that he said. Oh and I had also just found out that boy child number 1 had just gotten engaged that day only a few days after girl child number 1. So my brain was elsewhere. (that makes 3 weddings for us in 5.5 months) I think I need to change my user name to something else since we are down from 6 kids to 3 kids at home now, no longer am I a woman in a shoe.
