Ok, I get that if you breed a WF to a standard your outcome is a 1st gen. That is if the baby carries the WF gene. Where does all the .5 and the .75 and all the points come from?! I have a girl who came from a 2nd Gen and a Dark Cinnie. I am going to put her in with my lion. Will their WF babies be 1st gen. or 1.5?

Yes, she is a WF. My lion glider is not. So there babies would be 1st gen.
Can you explain the .5?

Is it when you have maybe a 1st gen and a 2nd gen then their babies would be 2.5?

because if you breed a 2nd generation to a 3rd generation.. the joeys will be 3.5 generations. I thought you would only have 2.5 joeys in this case scenario??

No because a 2nd Gen. and a 2nd Gen. would be a 3rd Gen. so a 2nd Gen. and a 3rd Gen. would be a 3.5 Gen. I guess I don't really get all the gen. stuff but I do know that at least.

No...I THINK...it would be a 3rd (3.0) because the next gen would automatically be a 3..and you only get the .5 if the back generations dont have all 4 parents being WF...Right???

OK....To get a .5 1 or 2( we dont use .25 or .75) so we give up to 2 ... of the 4 back grandparents must be something other than a WF..So if you have a 2nd gen Wf...her parnets were both wf....and he is a 3rd both his parnets where wf and all 4 of his grandparents where Wf...so there are no .5 so when you have a 2.0 and a 3.0 you can only take the next generation from the lowest parent in the case a 2nd so you add their generation joey as a 3...You can't add a .5 because there are no .5......see????
Did that make since???

1st gen = 1wf + gray 2nd gen = both parents have WF 2.5 gen = both parents WF and up to 2 out of the 4 WF grandparents 3rd gen = both wf parents and ALL 4 Wf grandparents 3.5 gen = both Wf parents and ALL 4 WF grandparents with up to 4 of the 8 great grand parents being WF 4th gen = both Wf parents and ALL 4 WF grandparents and ALL 8 WF great grandparents. You can only go up to the next Generation when ALL family members has only White Faces....

ok i have a 4th generation wf and i am putting her with a 2.5 generation so what will their babies be classified as? The joey would be a 3+ gen. It would be more than a 3.5 but less than a 4.

Right since we dont use .25 or .75...you can say 3+....but then I ran into the problem of "+" what??? .25?,.5? .75? So I found just sticking with the .5 was easier. Or I guess you can do 3.5+...but IMO, that is just way to many things...

Okay I'm reaaaaally confused...
Aidens Parents: Mom - 2nd gen wfb Dad - 1st gen wfb
Aiden = 2.5 gen wfb
Julz Parents: Mom - Cinnimon Dad - 2nd gen wfb
Julz = 1.5 gen wfb
Am I right with this? Even with all your explanations I'm still baffled... What will this make their babies? 2, 2.5, 3?

So now I'm like, reading algebra or VBA text books confused... A quote from the breeder I got Aiden from: "both of his parents are white faced blonde, making him a 2nd generation, his mother is a 2nd generation white faced sunkissed and his father is a first gen" - that's as much as I know of his lines... Thanks for your help, I've been waiting for this topic to come up so I could chime in!
