What is the likelihood of a male tiger, who parents were 8 feet at 3 years (male) and 15 feet at > 15 years (female), achieving a length of 15 feet or greater?
I'm prepared one way or another, just excited to be getting a retic. I'm curious though.

The female may be only 15 feet due to poor eating habits, or an owner that deliberately fed her little to keep her small, or she may have been bred very small and thus slightly stunted. And the male sounds like a low average. He could be kept small. It's so hard to tell. My guess is that the offspring would have JUST as much of a chance to become very large as any retic out there.
