As you know Marc, getting a recessive mixed with a codom from scratch takes time -- and some luck with gender and odds. A combo I have in the works for sure.
The straightest line between point A and B will be my 4 09 Caramel Mojave girls that are at least 18-24 months away from breeding age/size. All are feeding well at the moment. I will almost certainly have a 2 or 3 gene Special combo by that time. Might try to make a Special Het Caramel next season to pair with the Caramel Mojaves in 2012???
Long-winded response to which the short answer is 2012 would be the earliest Caramel Crystal from me Marc.
Someone else might make it first.I need to follow suit of many more experienced breeders and keep projects on the down-low I suppose???
