"Wow" is all I can say. Just amazing .

Educate me here, "f3" means third generation, yes? Third generation from what? From a wild-caught tortoise? I always see f1-f2 and such, but I'm never exactly sure what it means. With things like hybrid exotic cats (say, savannas), it means how many generations they are bred away from the serval half...So its confusing to me .

I think it means bred n captivity generation. My red foots are part 2nd/3rd CB(male/female difference)

F3 means that they are Third generation CBB animals.

F1 would be CBB from W/C animals
F2 would be CBB animals from CBB Animlas (F1)
F3 would be offspring from F2 animals. Now when my offspring from my F3 animals reproduce those babies would be F4 babies. It takes MANY MANY years of hard work to get to this point.
