Should look very interesting once they get older.

True or false, most male Parrots are sterile?
 
true, most male parrots are stale, what is it maybe 1% of male parrots are fertile... Anywho I hope these guys come out really cool! :)
 
Dawg thats a real nice red tex. Did you get him in Moline or online?
 
those are going to be some real interesting babies.....please post more pics as they get older and bigger........
 
there is a pic of the fry right there lol...

Yooper, yea I originally got the FH in the pet depot. He was labeled "flowerhorn' I don't think they really even know what they have in what tanks. The fish they are "attempting" to sell for over a year now at $400-$500 haven't grown ANY and are far less attractive then my Jinkang. He was only about an inch and a half when I got him and was strictly labeled "flowerhorn" but I picked him up becuase he was cheaper then the others, and was just looking at the body shape and general pearls of him. His colors turned really ugly for a while, but now are pretty awesome. I'm hoping for bonzai Jinkangs, that is with the BP body would be awesome, I'd keep me a few, then naturally give a few away, and of course, try to make a bit of money as well, to pay for my overly spendy hobby

as per the fish depot standards, they would probably sell my darn JK for $6-700 lol...

Yeah, Mike told me the owner paid around 400.00++ for each pair (had then shipped in). I think they have 3 red texas left. They have no color and are even ugly for a texas. Still the same high price of 60.00. The africans are expensive too. I normaly sell my fry off at Roe for credit.
 
JK's are old breed, they never sell for more than 100 bucks, your is very nice.


I would love to have some of those fry
