Iv got a CF06 female royal, wasnt in the best of health when I got her but doing well now shes been with me for a couple months.
My other royals are CB, and I can say were much better quality from the get go. But now Iv had the little CF for a while, I cant really tell the difference, in actual fact, the CF is feeding and shedding far better than the CB.
As a rule of thumb though, it is best that you avoid CF because of where they have come from and what they have been through etc. I think you can either be very lucky with CF or very unlucky and get a parasite ridden, stressed, non feeder.
With any animal, unless it is particularly rare, you should ideally get CB. The problem is that alot of shops, and other people, who get CF royals in will sell them as CB for the extra £20, but thats just the way it is.
I knew mine was a CF, but I just couldnt leave her in the shop she came from.
Id say pay the extra for CB, you'll save yourself a lot of hassle in the long run if you get a dodgy CF. :lol: :lol:
