When you say "we need to include only quantifiable ingredients and exclude perceptions", I sort of scratch my head. A descriptive word like "quantifiable" will never exist for the phrase "big breeders". It's all a mater of a point of reference and interpretation. When this phrase is used in a post or comment , the only question is what context it is used and if there is an agenda.

Does this stem from the idea that some of the smaller guys might point a condescending finger at some of the larger breeders when it comes to price fluctuations? If so, I don't see much of a conflict. IMO the buyers set the price not the breeders.


If you don't know if your a big breeder or not, I don't think anyone can help you with that.

Would it be a loaded question for me to ask who has the most valuable collection of boas in the opinions of anyone who might read this.
