more of my opinions.



I think i've only seen 2 people offering sharp sunglows this year. Part of this IMO is because very few have produced any, the other because those that did produce them will likely hold them back as breeders.



I think i've seen 5 people offering salmon jungles this year. Partly because only about 5 produced them, and because very few were produced. Most people that sold them, actually sold their holdbacks they were going to keep to breed.



I think Sharp Albinos this year sold out much quicker than Jungles did.



I think way more Jungles will be produced over the next few years than anything Sharp will. and by the amount, the numbers, since we're talking about co-dom vs. recessive, I would think the Jungle wouldn't hold it's value as much as the Sharp would.



I think bigger breeders or persons with more money to spend jumped on the jungles because of the 'race' to produce supers.

Yes, it has already been done, but not by the general public. Just one or two originators.



The Sharp Sunglow has been produced by more, and is less desireable overall than the super jungle, but mostly IMHO because of the superjungle race, and because of how many have viewed the sharp gene in the past as maybe not being so strong, one eye'd, etc., etc., etc. (which is the same thing that happened with kahl animals, and look where they are now!?)



So, in the same time that it would take me to make superjungles, if I held back the salmon jungle,

I could probably make tons of hets, DH's and Triple Hets with the Sharp animal, including Salmon Jungle's DH Sharp Sunglow (since I have another Jungle female).





Hmmmmmm





I also like the fact that I don't feel like I have to compete for the superjungle race, and pump up the female and breed her early to get the supers in a reasonable amount of time..



while I could lay back and not rush anything with the sharp stuff, and it should maintain its value still.







Just some more of the things I think of.. lol





Thanks again, joe
