Yes. Yes it was.

It looks like I'm good to go at pedigree 5 already. My female has a 4* parentage in all stats in her genes, and I have a male with 4* parentage in all but one. Looks like I should get them both to 40 and buy them a box of viagra for the weekend, and see what I get from their ten children. If I do that for four more generations, I may be able to purify their bloodline by pedigree 9.
On the other hand, there's a less than 1% chance of me getting an offspring with the genes I want this generation (per breed). So maybe it might take longer than that. I guess as long as I work with the best I have, I'll be alright.
Back to the plus side, I like its color.
