Ewest's answer is much better than mine, but my simple answer to your question would be "yes." It certainly couldn't hurt as long as you trust each supplier and know exactly what you're getting.

Our original LMB stockers came from 3 different hatcheries. We went that route because of genetics (and redneck common sense).
