What happens if 2 different breeds have babies?
If two different species reproduce and have children, then these children will not be fertile. E.g, when a horse and donkey reproduce together, then the offspring is called a mule. The mule will always be infertile, as will the offspring produced by cross-breeding of species. If two different breeds reproduce, then the offspring should share the characteristics from both breeds.
If a hybrid guinea pig breeds with another hybrid guinea pig what will the offspring be?
The offspring will have a mix of traits inherited from both parents, as each parent contributes its own set of genes. The offspring may exhibit a variety of features from both parents, including physical characteristics, temperament, and health traits. It's important to consider the genetic background of the parents and study genetics to understand potential outcomes.
How are inbreeding and hybridization the same?
Inbreeding is the breeding of closely related individuals of a species generally to produce more uniform offspring. Hybridization is the breeding of different varieties (breeds) or even different species to increase variation/ vigor in the genetic population. An example of variety hybridization would Labradoodles (labrador X poodle). An example of species hybridization would be (wolf X coyote). Many offspring produced from species hybridization are sterile... depending on the chromosome number compatibility and other factors.
What is the average advantages of crossbreeding over pure breeds of a swine?
Cross breeds usually carry the genetic traits of both parents. Meaning, if you mate a breed that is known for high milk producing females with another breed that is known for high meat production, then you will get an offspring that excels both traits. Whereas, purebred off spring will throw that breed characteristic.
What do you get when different breeds of chickens mate and we hatch the eggs what kind of chicken is that?
What you get is a cross breed. This is not always a bad thing. Breeds are born this way but with a lot more work than chance cross breeding. You can get some interesting combination when you do this on a home farm. I have a cross between an Araucana and a Cochin that produces "Gold" colored eggs.

What is the name of the offspring of a first cross?
The offspring of a first cross between two different breeds or species is known as a hybrid.
Do the male chicken and female chicken have to be the same breed to have chicks?
No. Roosters and hens can be of different breeds to create offspring, just like different breeds of cattle, sheep, goats and pigs can breed to create offspring.
What do you call it when different breeds or varieties are mated with one another?
This is called crossbreeding, where different breeds or varieties are intentionally mated to produce offspring with a combination of characteristics from the parent breeds.
How much does a beagle hound cost in Louisiana?
Depends on the pedigree. If the parents to the pup were good hunters chances are their offspring would be too. I have heard from many freinds they are one of the most difficult breeds to house break.
Which is a heterozygous or hydrid genotype?
A heterozygous genotype consists of a dominant gene and a recessive gene. Homozygous genotypes consist of two dominant genes (Homozygous Dominant) ro two recessive genes (Homozygous Recessive).Heterozygous: XxHomozygous: Dom. XXRec. xx

What is a cross-breed?
an animal with purebred parents of two different breeds.
If a hybrid breeds with another hybrid want will their offspring be?
Hybrid hybrids. Completely infertileand won't live very long.
