    Re: Pearls

    Personally if I had access to womas, I'd be breeding them off to normals, then keeping males, then the next breeding season breeding it to another normal female, and so on and so forth for maybe 5~6 years, then go back and breed some distant relatives to eachother and hope for the best. Pearls look groovy, but I'd put a bit of genetic diversity into the line before thinking of breeding for one.

    Re: Pearls

    I'm curious to see if Ed replies to this.


    A pearl will not survive.
    woma x woma will produce a pearl that dies.
    Only when woma x another morph is bred does the hidden gene react. That is not a super woma. A super woma aka pearl is woma x woma. No other morphs added into the mix.
    You cannot breed straight woma x woma and produce a pearl that lives.
    C'mon ED, I asked you straight out WHO has a pearl. Why is it that the womas YOU are selling will make a pearl that survives when bred together but ALL other womas when bred to another woma produce pearls that die?

    Re: Pearls

    I believe Kevin had said somewhere that the hidden gene womas survive longer than the other non hidden gene womas. And that they were working towards making it a viable living morph.
