My interest in breeding has latley sort of revolved around parrots and crossing them with things, and my favourite cross with a parrot is the sb red texases out there and rainbow king. My Fene's not really been into bp or fh females lateley (at least all the ones I've tried),
so I've been considering trying to cross parrots with different kinds of texas in the future.
I've thought for a while of buying ten or so red texas babies from rainybetta in hopes to get a really nice one (as I love all the rt ive seen from them),
but if I did this, there would be leftovers. And these I thought I might be able to breed to parrots.
How possible is this?
I've heard that many red texas males are infertile,
how true is this? As they have the same problem as blood parrots
this would make a RT x BP spawning almost impossible.
How much more genetically disparate are red texas from regular blood parrots? or is the male fertility thing something they say because parrots of various kinds are most likley used in the red texas'es creation?
Has anybody a male red texas from rainybetta or otherwise
that has sucessfully fertilized eggs?
Or Should I be planning on selling all the males from a batch of fry?
Obviously, I would like to cross a male rt with a female bp,
but trying it this way, would I be wasting my time?
