    Re: Quality of breeding stock

    How we generally rank quality:
    1. Pet Quality - The 2 or 3 dragons in each clutch with the least amount of color. These are available at a low cost and show more color than pet store dragons.

    2. Breeder Quality - These dragons are average in color for the clutch. This group is medium priced.

    3. Hold Back Quality - These are intensely colored dragons; the top 2 or 3 in the whole clutch. Our breeders come from this group.

    4. Collectors Quality - These are the best of the best. Maybe 1 dragon per clutch. Our breeders come from this group.

    Obviously I will need to tweek it, as I see how things pan out over the years. But it's a start! I think it would be practically impossible to have a "standard" among the community, as has been stated, because of the opinions varying so much on certain traits.
    This is a GREAT idea! Mind if I steal it from you as well (obviously, tweaked for BPs)? for when I am selling?
