CC,
Your question 1 is a good one. As far as I know, they are a "cool" water fish and a "warm" water fish, so not typically stocked together. That might be wrong BTW. The fish farm I got my PS from have both RES and PS. I found what appears to be a RES in my pond recently in a minnow trap so I might have had a stowaway or three. Maybe one of the pros can help with the question.
Question 2 I don't know. I am on a learning curve just like you now are. Again, hopefully, one of the pros knows the answer. From what I have found, there is not a lot of that type of info on the forum for PS.
Enjoy them!
Bill D.

Based purely on ear tab coloration PS and RES could easily hybridize. Coloration and color pattern is one key feature that fish use to recognize a mate. However natural crossing of these two species may have some reproductive behavioral differences that prevent hybridizing. Some experimentation will provide more answers. A hybrid RESXPS would be an interesting fish a good snail eater with possibly more tolerance to northern winters.

Maybe I will try PS/RES in one of the free cells I have...I've got the RES, someone just needs to hook a brutha up on the PS.

My Bro, Sid, with the biggest catch from our 1/4 acre 'hood pond. 5 lb. 14 oz. Channel Cat:  And, the world's most deadly person, from the fetal position, yours truly with a 2 lb. 4 oz. HSB:

Nice fish guys! Sunil, did you catch any CC?

And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.

No, Tony. Ironically, I've stocked CC for about 10 years, albeit in low quantities, and have only ever caught one. It was in the 'hood pond a few months after stocking (10) CC at 8-10". The one I caught was 11".

I thought I remember someone saying CC had eluded you, way back when at Bruce's place. If you get to Indiana, drop by and we'll change that.

Father’s Day Fishing Trip My Father’s Day gift was a major event for me, provided by my sons and a gracious host who is very good friend. I cannot express my appreciation for the love and consideration for a great day spent on a world class well managed private N.E. Texas lake. Time and geography stresses our familes in this day of age. We had an opportunity to spend one on one time with each other - I am so proud of our sons - they are good men! Pictures tell the story of a very special day day!   Caught quite a few this size for a fish fry:  Released a number of 3+ pounders to largest 5+ lb FAT momma, probaby 3 year old class fish. Lake stocked with native LMB, pure Florida generation of DNA tested LMB and F1's - best quality of young LMB I have ever seen - didn't get a picture ofF FAT momma.   Thanks to a great host and friend that provided boats, fishing dock and overnight accommodations. Happy belated Father’s Day to everyone. George Glazener

Here's my nephew with another HSB from our neighborhood pond. He seems to be obsessed with wanting to hold the fish with both hands like this:  This one is fatter than the one I caught, so I'm guessing closer to (3) lbs.

Nice fish Sunil. Maybe I'll grow my beard back too. We'd be extremely difficult to tell apart though.
George, as always, I love that old pic. Glad you had a great Father's Day.

Great HSB Sunil! I agree, that two handed pose is gonna' lead to an "ouch" moment.
