Does anyone ever think about breeding 2 different species (cross breeding)? i've seen an example like b.smithi and b.emilia but izzit possible for other species like , h.lividium and h.minax or a.avic and a.metallica?? or izzit for certain species? :? i've heard that , cross breeding is not encouraged and the only thing achieved through cross breeding is uncertainty. izzit true??
i'd really like to know more about cross breeding , could anyone please share some info or knowledge ... :)

Short and sweet response for you:

Crossbreeding is generally looked down upon. If you do it, don't sell the offspring. Last, but not least, do a search using the keyword "hybrid" or "crossbreeding". There have been numerous threads on this.

its a good idea trying to cross breed .. but i'd not risk it, who knows, both male and female might just die... perhaps keep us posted when u have a successful crossbreed !

I've read about cross breeding attempts before. The offspring generally looks worse than the parents, and in most cases is sterile.
