Well i dont believe that to be entiely true reg the breeding of Jag X Jag with all offspring not surviving..
If i do remember correctly , when 2 Jags are bred to each other you get a variety in the clutch with normal animals making 25% of the clutch , JAGS making up 50% and super Jags making up the remainder 25% but no super Jags have survived to date is what i remember but i could be mistaken.

Paul

Sorry that could be it. I can't remember exactly. Not worth it IMO anyway. Superjags I know won't survive, so you're not getting anything you wouldn't from jag x sib.
 
So does anyone actually know the possible result from this breeding and what sort of money they would fetch?
Paul
 
You would get albino jags, when the siblings are bred back to each other...........
 
Can you post pics of the Jag that this other person has???

i know someone who has crossed their Albino Darwin Female with a bright Yellow Jag male, can't wait to see the offspring! What do you think the Hets bred togeather will achieve?
 
come on buddy we would like to see some pics mate.
It never happened otherwise...
 
Finally got some photo's of these carpets from my friend who lives out of town, thought i would share them with you guys. You can be the Judge of them, I like them. Do you?:)

Craig,. They are stunning!,
If they are not Australian Jags,... What is?
 
hehehe onya Craig :)

Your mate has done a great job in emulating Jags, fooled me that they arent Jags and are just plain old coastals he has line bred :)
 
They are stunning, especially the 2nd pic..WOW.
So are they just pure costals? No crosses.
Definatly the best i have seen in Australia...

Cheers

well if they are just coastals sign me up for a pair because they look identical to authentic american/uk/wherever jags!! how do you know they aren't jags?
 
lol Tomcat - I was being sarcastic, I doubt they were bred in Australia,
Would be happy to be proven wrong of course :lol:

im with yu. they arent native. prove me wrong, but very unlikely. if they are actually animals that are in australia which i dont doubt they have been brought in. As for what jags are worth in australia, $2500 for males and $200 for females is what i have been offered, the guy never came threw so it could have been stories. either way i have heard from some very well respected keepers that there are actually a few people keeping and this season breeding them in sydney... i guess we will find out soon, i reccon they'll be everywhere in a coupld of years.
 
I'm with you Jason, they are very clearly REAL Jags and therefore technically illegal not that it will make much difference to the people buying them. They are stunning looking animals and a few generations ahead of any 'native' jaggish animals so they will be much in demand.

If they mate and lay in Australia their progeny is Australian. If the progeny are on licence then my understanding is that they are legal. All this talk about progeny bred from overseas animals being illegal is rubbish. If an animal is sold on licence its legal. You cant be expected to trace back linage to see if or when the grand parents or great grandparents were smuggled. Stop crying over spilt milk and move on. Jags are here just as non Aussie locality GTPs. Somewhere in the distant past the rules may have been broken as with most other foundation animals which were stolen from the wilds of Australia. Even many of those legalised in the amnesty were originally stolen illegally from the wild. We are fortunate to have such diverse genetics to work with so lets use them instead of squabbling about where they came from.
 
I agree, like I said they are technically illegal as they would be the offspring of illegal animals. Of course they are no different to the overwhelming majority of GTP's here and no-one seems to lose much sleep over them.
