Dabbling with some VPI Axanthics this season. Gonna try for a few DH pairings with the visual male we picked up, but we started the season with a straight up Axanthic pairing. We also have a 0.1 VPI 100% Het Axanthic at 3000g+ from Tim Bailey that we plan on taking a swing with a 1.0 VPI Enchi 100% Het Axanthic. A proven 10 egg layer, hopefully the odds are in our favor with a nice clutch.
First pairing for this 1.0 Axanthic Pinstripe x 0.1 Axanthic last night fresh out of QT. His first pairing ever.... picked up as a 2011 back-up from Tim Bailey @ 800g. Paired with this proven Axanthic girl and they were locked up this morning
We are planning on pairing the Ax Pin with our virgin 2012 FireFly and next in line. We were going to pull the trigger on a 1.0 VPI Fire Axanthic proven breeder, but we are going to wait a season or two to try and produce our own. We feel Fire and Pastel are "must haves" with Axanthics.
We can't take credit for this lock, but the pair is now in our hands to work with. Proven pair from Dave Jenkins (Royal Hijinx). They made some nice babies last year for him, and we expect nothing different this season. Another new recessive gene added to the collection. Dave paired them up once waiting on the weather to cooperate before shipping them out to us.
1.0 Mojave Hypo x 0.1 Black Pewter 100% Het Hypo. The Mojave Hypo will likely see our 2012 virgin Pied PH Hypo to try to prove her out. DH Hypo Pieds at worst, and we are working towards Mojave Pieds anyways- the Hypo is now just an added bonus
