there is one misleading point:



F1 Hypos are technically considered "heterozygous" hypos



Untrue as a homozygous F1 hypo could be created from any two non sibling hypo's including two non sibling homozygous hypos!!







The filial (sp?) nomenclature is:



P1 original unrelated parent animals



F1 ofspring from that pairing (by definition, EVERY animal is at LEAST a F1)



F2 = offspring from two related (I interpret that as sibling) F1's



F3 = offspring from two related F2's



etc. etc.



ANY time you breed a Fx to an unrelated (non sibling) animal, both revert back to P1's
