I have Larry Keller animals as well as a Harlequin and they have all been held by a breeder at 03 Daytona that helped begin the official JUNGLE line. Or at least a Huge part in producing the animals.



Upon inspection all of the animals, 2.2 Larry Keller AND the 1.0 Harlequin were said to have extremely similar traits being both color and pattern to the Swedish Line Jungles. In fact the statement was made that if on HIS table they would be sold for thousands Vs what I paid.



Now I plan on breeding the LK line back together this year and I am hoping for what others would call a Super Jungle or at least the same looks.



I can tell you that if there are others out there this year with LK animals and they do the same breeding this year, there maybe a huge Jungle argument before it is over. Will they be Jungles if they appear the same, no but a new name will be in order if they pass on the traits and they get better and cleaner when bred back together as the Jungles do.



Who knows.. maybe a black or purple will pop out.. wont that make for an active week here on KS.



As far as them not being as nice as the Jungle because they cost less is really not an issue... if it makes anyone feel any better I can raise the price on mine if I ever get any, babies that is.
