No, we start a new batch every year, using male greens and female BG.
We usually keep their progeny up to 2 1/2 years, and have never seen fry or fingerlings in any of the ponds where they (F1s) are held for growout (each year class is held in a separate pond). They certainly DO makes nests, etc, but have never seen offspring.
Next time I move some, I'll sacrifice a few and sex them.
