Maybe it's just me but it sounds to me more like he just wanted to dump some animals he couldn't move and threw in some embellishments to seal the deal. Did he give you any paperwork guaranteeing genetics on the "het pied" male? If not, I'd just consider it a possible het until you can prove it out. I care about each animal I produce whether it's a normal male (that no one ever seems to want) or something far more valuable and in demand. I don't just ditch animals because I don't have time for them. If I didn't have time for them, I wouldn't have bred their parents.![]()
I'd steer clear of this "hard core breeder" if I were you.
