Looking for pics of PearlXMarble Hybrids.

I know there's Pearl X Motoros out there, but I'd like to know if anyone's crossed nice A+ Marbles with very high quality Pearls.

Is it possible doing this would increase the quality of the pattern?

I could argue both sides, as I appreciate Hybrids and clean lines. It all boils down to the breeders care. IF they are meticulous like they should be then there will be no confusion on what's crossed with what. ;)

I've also heard that Motoros, Marbles, and Pearls are all just different variants of the same species so on that note it wouldn't even be hybridizing.

So would the end result surpass pure Marbles or would it just be a waste of time.

Lemme know your thoughts MFK as this would be the first place they will be offered up IF this plan gets to the execution stage..... :naughty:
 
i would love to see what a high quaity marble would produce with a pearl. i'm a big hybrid fan though so I may be biased. as long as the breeders are responsible and let the buyers know exactly what they are buying i see no harm in hybrids.
 
if it were to turn out like skynoch's, i'd do it! his is sure a beauty! are you going to try male pearl and female marble? wish i had
a horny male pearl to try this!

You hit the nail on the head.

Not sure if it will work as the potential Pearl is still kinda small compared to my big girls, but it's worth a try in my eyes. I think my ogre and america's lil bill would make off the wall pups.

Hopefully they'd be as nice as Skynoch's but hard to say as his Marble is really friggin nice. :drool:

All my females are Marbles. Planned it this way on purpose, should be easier to keep track of hybrids if only the males are mixed species.

Hoping for Jarbles (JagXMarble), Pebles (PearlxMarble), and Muttbles (my "mutt" x Marble) by next summer, provided the Mutt and Jag are mature by then.
