Different. Hopefully they will be bought by a collector who does not try to breed them, but just wants to give them a home.

What a shame, another hybrid and even more of a shame they are to be sold. There would have been so many chances to nip this in the bud given that the breeder doesnt want to hold on to them to live out their lives without being put into the general public area.

I'm astounded that this hybrid can occur and I'm now concerned about keeping my DBs and Plumheads together. At present all seem to be paired up with their right species except one odd Plumhead male who constantly eyes off ("peering") other Star males. Have got him a female partner about to be released from quarantine so I hope that keeps everything in check.
