Well, I actually think your response is very insulting! You're trying to be clever and state that what you believe is fact, while what anyone else believes is false-in spite of the "evidence", if we don't buy it, we're fools. Well, here's some examples of someone going against the grain with their opinion. Why, it's you.



AskJeffR: WHAT IS YOUR OPINION ON T POS ARGENTINE BOA AS AN INVESTMENT ANIMAL?



The_Boaphile: Probably a good one but isn't a "T" positive animal really just a simple resesive hypo? Not expecting an answer. Just food for thought.





AskJeffR: I would like to know your personal feeling toward the sunglows, are they in your mind a sought after trait?GO



The_Boaphile: I guess your trying to get me in trouble.



The_Boaphile: I don't really believe in it. Sunglows are supposed to be Hypo AND albino. If an albino lacks all pigment



The_Boaphile: and a hypo only lacks some pigment how can you tell if a boa with a "hypo" pattern is really a hypo or not if it is ALbino? go



AskJeffR: Are you currently working with Sunglows?



The_Boaphile: No I am not. I may make some of my own someday but will not sell any of the ALbinos as Hypos as well. i don't beleive we can KNOW that without proving it through breeding.



What's that, you don't believe something can be KNOWN without proving it through breeding???? EXACTLY MY POINT JEFF!!! Is it that hard to wrap your head around? I said they are probably recessive....but let's see the results before labeling things as hets. Also, you may say what you wish, but you are definitely treating this project differently because you are invested in it. I believe that is human nature.
