My point, in agreeing with FR, is that ANY selective breeding reduces locality. Especially morph breeding. Selective inbreeding 10 generations(F10)without new blood creates a manmade reflection on what the genes might have looked like 30 years ago. But not likely. Is that the definition of "locality"?? I think most "locality" breeders would like to incorporate new blood, I want to think they do. If they want to seriously differentiate themselves a standard might help? Otherwise we can end up with 10-15 DIFFERENT versions on the same locality.....and what good does that do anyone?
