RE: Discovering hidden traits in kittens started using recessive traits!!
If the goal is to breed out new traits as fast as possible this is the way to go.
If the goal is to collect the hidden traits of the starter pure it works way different.
There is nothing I hate as much as buying a weak trait for an insane amount of money.
With this I mean if I want to buy a new trait I like but it is not the most recessive but the most recessive is hidden I'm ticked.
I just want that new trait and not an hidden more and known recessive that is just not what I am paying for.
For example the dreamy whisker may be not the most recessive anymore and as soon as I found out the Sassy was found I made sure to obtain my Dreamy because I like that whisker very much and I do want to have it without Sassy hidden should that be the new recessive.
I do use a very recessive cat to find out what my starter hides and poof the OS to play with the tigers and certainly don't sell it if I happen to find a new trait via this way.
After I decided that the hiddens are interesting enough I breed the starter with a dominant traiter and go via either back- or sibling breeding from there.
