F100 Question

[jrtader]

I've seen the term "F100" used here and there on these forums regarding some clutches or hatchlings. Can someone explain what this means? I was just looking at the available panthers on the screameleons website and they have F100's as a reference number on some of these baby chams.

well i'm not really sure about the f100 but i am pretty sure that an F1 baby means that it was born from wild caught parents meaning that it is the first generation of that line.

Thanks rocky! So does that mean that if the parents are wild caught, then the F1 hatchlings may have parasites? I know that this would be the case if they were captive hatched.

I don't think f100 has been produced in any chams yet. Right? That would require at least 50 years of captive breeding I believe.

joes right.... it gets worse

some say f2 is not f1+ wc, but F1 + F1

if thats the case can you imagine an f100 by the later definition, that would take unlimited wc stock.


it was fun thinking about it though
