[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1480565, member: 968"] Flush mates may or may not look alike. Just because they have the same dam & sire does not mean they are equal. To me, I start out with something that has the phenotype I like to look at, then look at the sire & dam. Do they have the same? The more generations of an animal looking like what you want, the more consistency you will get in his offspring. Numbers are a tool. They come second to structure then looks. [/QUOTE]
