Easier said than done. I live in Florida and corns are plentiful, but just try to find one! I got lucky and found a wayward hatchling 10 years ago that would probably not had survived considering when and where she was found. She produced over 135 babies for me. Now go ahead and sue me for endangering the species!

And if any of your post had any basis in reality, that would mean something.

I think there is a HUGE difference between catching a "wayward" hatchling that probably wouldnt have survived compared to a gravid female. And I am glad it has produced for you. Maybe having bred and sold over 100 will save that many in the wild. But I did look at your website, and it seems you like the "wild caught" corns as well; you mention 1 wayward hatchling, but I see quite a few more of your breeders that are wild caught. Maybe you would have been happier with a gravid female rather than a hatchling, but just dont want to admit it. Hypocrisy rules in here.

Excuse me? Where are you finding all these wild-caught snakes on my site? I only have the one. Two of my other breeders were bred and born in captivity from a pair of wild-caughts owned by someone else. Every other snake on my website is captive bred and born. I believe an apology is in order here!

Serp, I gave you reality in my examples. If you have anything insightful to say other than a chance to bash, feel free. If not, then I just consider the source.

And perhaps you'd have been happier if she said what you WISHED she would "admit". But you'd rather imply instead of dealing with what she DID say.

Thus, it begs the question. Just whose hypocrisy are you referring to?

look at your first couple of breeders and look at the parents......all wild caught. There are at least 3 right off the top. I dont feel I need to apologize when my proof is there. If I am wrong, I will be the 1st to apologize

Hey...it says "PARENTS are wild-caught" NOT the snakes I own! "Norma" is the only wild-caught...the hatchling I found 10 years ago. "Blotchy Half Stripe" was bred and born in captivity. There are NO OTHER from even wild-caught parents on the first page...seems like you can't even count. The only other one I own from wild-caught PARENTS, but BRED AND BORN in CAPTIVITY is "Broken Stripe 8"...in Gallery #3.

Now I'm waiting...

I would be happier if wild snakes remained that way...wild. And do you always jump in and compare someone to a crackhead when you havent presented your beliefs on the subject? Put out your beliefs for our judjment before you judge, unlike children
