Not sure who I want to breed her with.

I'd love to hear some opinions.

I have an Afghanicus female who looks like she might be ovulating. I'm not sure who I want to breed her with this season.

I could breed her to my bell enigma, Krueger, to outcross with the enigma gene.

I could breed her to Damien, one of my eclipse het tremper males for het eclipse babies.

I could breed her to Isaac, my het blizzard because I love the normals and they would probably make pretty babies. Their colors are similar and they both have bold markings.

Those were the three males that I was thinking of, but I could probably breed her to one of the others on my site, too.

Or I can hold off breeding her until next season.

What do you think?:)

I would breed her to the Bell enigma and you should get some awesome offspring and it may help clean up the enigma issues.

I'm leaning towards Krueger since he was my first plan.

I don't know if I could be mean enough to put Pogue in with her. He's almost three times her size and an aggressive breeder!

I took a look at the boys' pics on your breeder page. I would go with either Krueger or Isaac, but am leaning more toward Krueger. I don't know how much you want to delve into the enigmas, but it would be a good outcross. I would be interested to see a pic of the female. I can understand why you might want to go with Isaac too. He's just handsome, and since you said she is dark, I think they could make some nice babies. I guess it depends on if you want normals or not. Let us know which you choose in the end, and be sure to show us babies in a few months.

Well, Kelli and Jeremy had them, A&M has some and I do too. Kristi already knows she has a fasc het eclipse or mack fasc het eclipse with her name on it :)

Now I'm even more confused!

I am planning on breeding Pogue to my bell line and enigma lines. I thought that my outcrossing with Kruger would give me some stronger enigmas to use for that. I already bred Pogue with Ginger (hypo enigma het bell) and figured that I would keep a baby or two. I'd like some Gem Snow Bell Enigmas and crosses.:)

But everything Paul said makes a lot of sense, too. Obviously my eclipse line is my biggest breeding project (and my favorite).

ETA: I do plan on getting more afghanicus females in the future, too. I got this one from a trade, but I do want more.
