This article was written by Ian in September of 1993. It seems an age ago, but the fundamentals ring true. Whether your an open breeder or a beginner like myself. You can never take too much advice from a member of his calibre.

Would anyone like a nice easy round?

Suggestions:

Minimum number of pairs......8

2 pair of Lutinos or Lacewings

2 pair of Cinnamonwings or Greywings

2 pair of pure Normal Green series

2 pair of Normal Blue series

With these pairings you can foster to six nests and still be able to keep your records in tact.

Our thanks to Ian for his permission to post this fundamental talk on our site.

Don't forget if you have an article to submit, please send it to me.
