I'm not saying that they are poss het just the % of you getting a jungle from breeding two normals with jungle history seems to work in the same manner.A breeder here in the uk had to normal leo's that was the result of breeding a jungle to a normal when he back bred the two normals with jungle history back together he got a jungle baby.I know it's just hearsay but he is a credible soure here in the uk.
Gazz, I don't think you're understanding what Possible Het means...
Possible Het (usually from Het to Het breedings) means that the specimen might be Het for a particular mutation. Breeding trials will prove whether the specimen is or isn't Het. Once the breeding trials are complete, the Possible Het would then be labeled Het or not Het. A Possible Het does not stay as such the rest of its life (unless breeding trials are never done)...Once the hidden traits of that Possible Het are proven, that will determine whether or not it is Het. If the Possible Het proves to be a true het, it can produce the mutant offspring...If it proves to not be het, their is no possibility that it is Het, thus it does not carry alleles for the mutation. In no way shape or form would a Possible Het produce mutant offspring unless it is a true het...
Now...What you said about the UK breeder producing a Jungle from Normal parents with Jungle lineage. Yes, that can and does happen. BECAUSE the mutation is line bred. BUT it's not guaranteed (because it is neither Recessive nor CoDom). Which is why I suggest that if Normal offspring is produced from Line Bred parent(s), let the purchaser know of its line bred heritage.
When you outcross line bred variations, the quality of the variation decreases. Breed 2 A Jungles together; you will more then likely produce more A Jungles. Breed an A Jungle to a Normal; you will more then likely produce lower quality Jungles.
