>>-- Jungles are a genetic mutation (Co-dom), as opposed to (polygenic)line bred abberrancies such as Harlequins, Aby's and (imo)Cyclones. To me, it would make sense and be fine to breed Harlequins to Abys, or other type of polygenic lines because they can all be labeled as Aby Harlys, (or whatever the lines are). But when mixing with a Jungle, now we're dealing with a genetics that can't be separated visually with any certainty .

Myself (and maybe others) are interested in this breeding to see what the outcome of a junglexharli would be and how the two genes would affect each other. Could the jungles be picked out easily or not? With the breeding history being poss. jungles so far we really don't have an answer one way or the other yet. I'm still about 2 (maybe 3) years away from breeding my jungle to my harlis. I have visions of very abarrent jungles with lots of color.

I also think the abyxharli, etc, breedings would yeild some interesting results. I wonder if anyone has done abyxjungle yet?

>> The very best outcome in my opinion would be for you to breed your possible Jungle to a normal

I think that's a great idea, that way the poster will know one way or the other if these kids are poss. jungles or not. Maybe these are just very abarrent harlis which has happened and part of the original confusion years ago of people wondering if the traits were related (which we know they are not since F2 and F3 harlis do not look like super jungles).
