Well you could say bc3 for the wheatens, I've done no crosses since I've been working with that line. The blacks aren't crossed either, they come off all black stock. They are my first generation working with blacks.when you say wheaten are F3 . they are not from pure wheaten stock? or cross between wheaten lines?
we used F1/2/3 etc .........when we working with a cross .
if we working with pure strain we use Back cross .BC1/2/3 etc..................... your wheaten look pure to me they don t seem to carry any parasitic coloration from other varieties .
silver and golden crele make sense they are f2 .they are a blend of 2 varieties
how your solid black come to be ? sire Black or Dam black ?
