BEA_V1S Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 got this fella not long ago, was told the father was sgjd. i'm assuming that's why he has so much blue around the mouth?? I got two of them and the other one is nowhere near as blue. they are about 6-7cm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenswimmers Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) hes a her for starters mate ..id bet my undies on it anyways....and you cant really prove it 100% until he/she breeds(the proof is in the offspring!..as long as both parties are splits then you'll throw ebjd).....I still think if you head towards the fish with the most blue on them then you have the best chance...its not foolproof but I have found it gives you better chances than just any random JDs...the blue "beard" is the sign of the girl and lack of heavy blue spotting on the body....boys are the opposite..and I go for the boys with loads of blue body spotting(and the boys wont get the blue beard)..this is just my opinion and the genetic variance can kick in to confuse you but this seems to be generally correct from my experience...nice girl with a lot of blue on the face...Id definitely try her out with another nice blue/or proven split boy(even better an ebjd! )....

kasman Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 yeh female for sure. As goldy said no way to physically tell if its split. thats why a breeding pair are still worth a few bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronny Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 As stated i agree female, however im just not too sure on that head shape, inbreeding too much perhaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
