The Filial(F)

[Jamaldanny]

I wonder is Filial (F1,F2,F3....) can be used to represent the purebreed generations? Such as breed A x breed A= F1 breed A.

Or the filial only can be used in crossbreed/ to create hybrid? Such as Breed A x Breed B = F1.

Any explanations?

It's used to talk about purebreds sometimes, especially when talking about breeding together different lines from the same breeds

 

[Jamaldanny]

Same breed also can use Filial(F)?

Such as (HL=Holland Lop)
HL line A x HL line B=F¹ HL line C??

 

[SableSteel]

Yes
It's most common when people are breeding an outside like into their stock
Like let's call their line HL line A, and they bring in a buck from HL line B. Crossing it in, HL line A x HL line B, F1 for their new line C

Then, when the F will stops?

And if the rabbits were came from same rabbitry, still can use F?
