Tim
I think the posts you see here from Dave are actually put on here for him by someone else. I doubt Dave has ever navigated on a computer in his life, but sure he would talk to you if you called him.

Can't give you any where near the insight or experiance that Dave could, but I think I understand the question-I have met some people who firmly believe that if you make the same cross twice, the second time it won't work. To me that train of thought is borderline insanity! I was happy with my first litter from Pie and Sky, so I repeated it 2 more times. Have seen crosses that flat didn't work, so no way was I going to gamble or chase rainbows when I had something that suited me. There were\are good and bad from each litter, but I have consistantly seen similar traits in all of them regardless of which litter they were from. Just like people-all brothers and sisters are different, yet you can usually see similarity too. JMO

I'd agree with you on this. Have always heard 1st cross was best chance of working. I got the Jo-anne female from Terry, so this kind of changed my mind- 4th Boomer/Ruby cross. Take care, Ron.

Yep, the Boomer Ruby cross is a great example. Multiple happy people from each cross!

First, second, third or fourth you are crossing the same genetics. I really think you would get the same out come. I will ask Dave when I talk to him again. We talk often.
