Obviously, that is fact too...not rude!! I did say if you are not experienced, you were facing the possibility of a mess...again fact! You have 5 years under your belt...excellent start...I studied pedigrees and lines and genetics and diseases for at least 20 years, from 1980 until 2000...only THEN did I think I possibly knew enough to find an experienced breeder to mentor me before I rolled up my sleeves and jumped into breeding....so, it took me longer to learn what I thought was important to a breeding program, it than it did you....again, fact, not rude! Old breeders dont die off, sweetie....they live forever, in the outstanding, beautiful, solid, healthy, proven lines they worked a lifetime to develop! All those gorgeous Yorkies you see floating around a show ring, those reflect generations of lines developed by those "old breeders" you sneer at and perhaps feel contempt for. Hopefully, all present "new" breeders are striving to continue these outstanding, proven pedigrees, and do no damage to the years and years of diligent hard work from those that laid the foundation for us....I know I do my best with a mere 35+ years of studying and continuing education devoted to this breed. That too, is FACT...not rude! |
I thank any one whole hart fully for giving someone advise, yes I asked a question because I never been in this situation. I am a true believer that we learn everyday and can never know it all. Just reading some post it seems many like to (how can I say it correctly) degrade the ones with less years just coming into breeding. 5 years is not a lot but I have had many good litters thank god. The only way to learn is to ask questions. I guess the real question was will he have enough sperm? I dont over breed so I didnt know. It is good to have people who have many years under their belt. I say take those years and pass it on. I dont have a mentor I look to education online and through books and my passed friend. I guess as we all know sometimes writing can be pertained as meaning something you didnt or sounding a different way because I cant hear your tone of voice, therefor I do apologize for being mean! I guess I took it the wrong way, I didnt feel I got an answer just got scolded.
