...known to eradicate whole colonies seems a bit preachy and with bias towards the breeder. I have thousands of hours, both field and lab associated, of experience with zonata and while part of me thinks this sickness is a syndrome sparked by stress, I also think there very well may be an underlying pathogen-based origin to it. Seeing as all studies cannot rule out a pathogen as a causal factor, it would be irresponsible to attribute everything to stress. Furthermore, because of this the seller should be showing and taking more responsibility here (instead of sending Stu harassing and rude emails).
I ask you this, Kingsnake and you preach that we ARE a community, but shouldn't the community be aware of not just diseases on our animals buy also diseased breeders that sully our hobby and hurt those that share our passion of herps? Just curious.
