I keep all the babies and when the girls are big enough breed them to try and prove a super. If the Super proves, then I am ahead of the game because I already have crosses growing up! If the Super doesn't prove oh well I have Morphs from him bred to morph girls and maybe his pattern, color, and blushing will enhance their apperence.

    So why should I wait to prove a super before proving a super?
    I don't want to speak for Jason, but traditional thought is you don't "spend" a female morph on an unproven animal--no matter how promising. Most would put an existing proven morph on her. I know how hard it can be not to roll the dice.

    I have 2 males that I believe to be homozygous. They are WILD looking!!! One produced 12.13 bred to 3 different normals last season and ALL of them look the same and get lighter as they age. The other male only gave me 2 eggs both 85 gram girls -- very unique -- SAME MARKERS.

    I am considering putting them on a morph each this season based on how they and offspring look.

    Most breeders wiil tell you NOT to breed it to a morph until you make a super --I would not be one of them. If you feel good about it...roll those dice.
