breeding

[jorrow]

I was just wondering if it was possible for a yellowfoot and a redfoot to succesfully create offspring..... And also if a Brazilan redfoot could breed a redfoot.... Just random thoughts Thanks

I't is possible for Redfoots and Yellowfoots to breed and produce offspring. It happens very rarely, even in mixed groups. They are both found together over much of their range and have evolved different courtship rituals that have kept the 2 species from interbreeding.
The different Redfoots are as of now just geographic variations. At most they will be subspecies and can interbreed no problem.

Thanks I was just curious about the yellow an redfoots..... But why i ask about the cherry heads and redfoots is because my cherryhead has no cherryhead lol.... But it does have the dark plasteron so i was just wondering if he was a hybrid between 2 subspecies because i know the breeder has both types of torts....
