Breed to what?

jscrick Mar 12, 2008 02:57 PM

Which Albino line would you breed this Euro Pastel male to, if any?

Kahl, Sharp, Caramel, T pos., ?

Opinions please.

Which European Pastel line is that? Personally I'd try and get another one and do that instead of an Albino. But if you really want to breed an Albino into it, then Sharp!

Bred by Hans Winner in Germany, so I'm told.
Is that good? I honestly don't know.

That's a very nice bloodline! He's been working with them for a while, only recently brought into the US.

Just wondering because lines like the Dutch Pastels, or Kubsch Pastels get the "Euro" label sometimes. Hans specifically refers to his line as the Euro Pastels.

Any of those would work really well.Kahl or Sharp would show color forsure though!I don't know how Pastel Color influences Carmel/T Positive Boas yet. Lar M

I would breed it with the most highly red influenced Albino you can get your mitts on. If that is a Sharp Albino, that's what I'd get. If that is a Kahl Albino, that's what I'd breed it to. Really strongly red influenced Albinos are not common and not inexpensive when you find them but that would be worth the price paid and may push the red influence even farther. If she was mine I might breed her with this little guy:

Or maybe one of his offspring or nephews... it's all about the RED!
