Gotta disagree... a F10 to to a F1 will not be a F11... can never be one... you back track NINE (9) generations and "infect" the blood line. In no way would a F10 look anywhere near what the F1 looked like after 9 generations of inbreeding.

F1 x F3... F4 x F5 ... F18 x F89 does not following the "system"... the term Filial(the F) can not be used here for the resulting offspring by just adding the generation numbers together. The pairings are not compatible with the system, they don't following the system, so they can't be labeled in the same way the system is set up.

That being said a F1 x F10 would be just that a F1 x F10... OR even better as a poster ( garweft) just Clarified F1 x F10 = F1... makes sense... the two animals would be sooo far apart in generations and likely genetics and/or phenotype that it would be like introducing two unrelated parental generations.

system is as such

Parental 1 x Parental 2 = F1

F1 x F1 = F2

F2 x F2 = F3

F3 x F3 = F4

F4 x F4 = F5

F5 x F5 = F6

And so on... If the paring do not follow this system... they can not be described using the terms of this system... they can't be manipulated to fit into a system that wasn't designed to satisfy these back breeding in the 1st place.

Guess that's why we have sooo many morph names!
