Lately I've been pondering the possibility breeding
Nico. He's a beautiful little ham and as much as I love to give hams a second chance at a forever home, I'd also like to have the experience of caring for some from birth.
It wouldn't be my intention to sell any pups or even give any up for free for that matter. Unless somebody I already knew and trusted wanted one or two. I'd try and keep any as male and female groups initially and split them up in to smaller groups or individuals when/if need.
So here's the thing, Nico as you may know came to me from a P@H adoption centre, is it completely irresponsible for me to breed from him, given that I know nothing of his genetics? Or could it be ok if I find him a mate which is from known stock?
I admit I don't yet know much about, the genetics of it all colours and patterns, mutations, possible issues for which Nico could be a carrier?
Should I just put this idea out of my mind completely and not even bother to research it further?
I've read a little but about breeding Robos and obviously would research a whole lot more before hand, as this wouldn't be something I'd plan on attempting for a few months.
