#cross breeding

[vanishingsydney]

Spider flower (Grevillea banksii). Prolific autumn flowering shrubbery and small tree, seen in front yards all over the Inner West at this time of year. Well suited to cross-breeding, there are hundreds of different cultivars. Rozelle.

Number #2 (sad) was the runner up in your voting. 

So here you have an early version of The Plague Dogs if they didn’t succeed in escaping from the laboratory:

They are dogs 666, 667, 668 and 669. These guys are littermates:

They are second generation mixes: (dachshund x french bulldog) x  (dachshund x french bulldog)

I reference them as Plague Dogs tangent (the book/movie about research dogs undergoing experiments who escape to become free) because these guys never truly got free at the end of the ethically dubious experiments.

Instead at the end of their life on the research farm, they have been mounted both in skin and bone:

Just a snippet of the past:

"Doodles are MUTTS and therefore BAD."

Y'all are why we have so many issues with COIs in purebred dogs. This knee jerk "cross breeding is WRONG because it makes NON PUREBRED DOGS" is ridiculous.

Crossbreeding to make dogs for a defined purpose isn't automatically wrong/bad/irresponsible/unethical/whatever buzz word you wanna use.

the pansies in my garden will cross-breed with anything, this is a california poppy plant that I grew from seeds - the orange blooms are completely normal, the pink ones appeared about a month ago, the strange yellow rose-looking thing last week and the pansy head appeared today

the pansies have also cross-bread with these small orange flowers i have (i forgot to write down what they were after i planted them) to create these stalk things that flowered for abour a week then went barren

think this is probably due to the amount of bees in the garden, we have a fuchsia bush that they adore so after they've visited it they'll check out the other flowers too

I am host to a massive plant orgy

Progress of the california poppies over the past 2 months:

...I don't know if this is interesting to anyone else

Cross breeding risk?

Quick question: do you reckon Pseudomugil cyanodorsalis and P. signifer are at risk of cross breeding? Given their similar likings for brackish conditions, I’m hoping to raise a group of both together.

I’ve been raising Piplups

My hatchlings! Schala (my Northern Sea/Standard breed Empoleon) has been a wonderful mother and the eggs finally hatched! These Pippers are adorable. Don’t worry about Bill- we have him on some medication to mitigate his migraines.

Don’t let Yuno fool you, he’s keeps trying to break into the poffins. Sylvie is also extremely proud of her leaf-like plumage. Interestingly, she can’t swim that well. I suspect it has to do with her “feathers”, not too watertight.

Ahhh, and Chazz, my Southern Sea Empoleon! @prof-peach​  I know why he was doing that thing now. Siggie, my friend at the research station further south, gave me this egg without telling me anything about the Southern Sea Empies. Apparently, the jewels on his head are a symbol of strength - Southern Sea Empoleons aren’t like Northern ones, they recognise strength by putting magnetic stones on each others horns - the more jewels and stones, the stronger the Empy. I am apparently the alpha Empoleon at the breeding ground.

This Andhra Pradesh mango is diabetic-friendly

[ad_1]

When the sweet aroma of mangoes spreads, diabetics are in a dilemma whether to savour it or not. “Will my sugar level shoot up? Should I skip a meal?” These are the common questions that cross their minds, and more often than not, they avoid eating the king of fruit.

Well, here is a good news for diabetics. Kongara Ramesh, a progressive farmer of Tarluwada village, near Anandapuram on…
