For the record the breeding method described here is, of course, the only method for discovering new recessive traits.
Since 2011 we have Saga's docs, with the dominance charts, a simple guide to the method and also the Trait-Talk Transcript from an information meeting that Saga gave in September 2011 (

Of course she doesn't take all the credit for this and i remember Draco Nacht dropping me a NC with the known trait orders that they and a few others had already worked out sometime in summer 2011. The Nachts were giving meetings each sunday from around May/June i think to share what they had found and everyone was welcome to attend.
So this method is free for all to see and new breeders who want to take the trouble can even work out this system for themselves.
For those who have difficulty there are and have been many breeding classes to help new and older breeders understand the process.
On top of that, many breeders, including myself have gone to the time and trouble of coaching new breeders who were having difficulty understanding.
There are also a multitude of threads on this site that explain and re-explain the system and also correct the many misconceptions that seems to grow like weeds in the community.
So really, this statement that the older breeders keep their "secrets" to themselves is totally untrue and irks me and i'm sure many others too. In fact i find it hard to see how anyone could NOT find help in discovering the method.
I seem to remember you giving thanks to someone who first helped you out in another thread Fabio, so if they weren't teaching you this method i'm just wondering what they WERE teaching you.
However i'm sure that Google Translate is responsible for much misunderstanding and you're pretty courageous for even attempting all this in a foreign language that you don't speak.
** KittyCats team themselves gave no information about the breeding system and we had to work it all out for ourselves but that was part of the fun and excitement of that first year.
