  2. Hi Yusran,

    I wish you success. If you can lay your hands on a long-tailed male or female shama (LT), the actual process takes time but it is not too difficult.

    In the first mating between the LT and the WCS, none of the offspring will have long tails but all of them will carry the long tail gene.

    Breed the offspring back to LT and you should be able to get some offspring with long tails. Through careful repeated pairings, you will eventually end up with WCS with long tails.
