    I think that, what they mean, is that breeding normal to normal is not ideal because it's harder to place the babies. Whereas, I could breed my normal female to my silver streak male and get NO normals therefore easier placement lol

    Not really easier single genes especially males are hard to place, Pastels are basically the new normal.

    There are a lot of things to consider, not everyone that breeds will actually make a return that will allow them that break even and have a collection that pays for itself, at least not in the first year or so and maybe never especially with lower single gene mutations.......that's the reality if you want it to make a return allowing you to care for your collection you will have to be smart about it and plan it like a small business.

    Good to know. I think I'll just keep my babies to have them and let breeding go for now
