Hey all,
I agree with you all, that Carpondro X Carpondro breeding should produce some magnificent animals with a very high degree of variability, due to resegregation each animal should look very much different from one another.
Also, the canary X carpondro should be interesting, although I have a feeling most are going to look like a GTP with slight black markings on some. The next generation (Canary Carpondro X Canary GTP or Canary Carpondro X Canary Carpondro) should be where it is at, and is probably the only way to get a orangish/yellow carpondro!
Very cool breeding project if you ask me, only thing I would change would be making F1 Canary GTP X Carpet, rather than using a carpondro, keep the blood lines simple, so it is easier to understand what is going on with the project. Main reason would be you are taking a highly heterozygous animal (Carpondro) to a highly homozygous animal (canary chondro)and more than likely the canary gene is simple recessive, or multi-allele so it will be hard to keep the offspring consistent with what you are trying to produce.
Thanks,
Dan
