Traded off and died. Sounds fishy to me. Problem with most of these "troubled" animals is, are they being treated? Set up so they are not stressed out? I can ask a hundred questions, but I think none could be answered.

Like my last post, unless these animals are taken care of, and not treated like throw away animals, they will be just that, something to get eggs out of, and then tossed aside.

I take good care of my females, and they respond in a postive way. I have NEVER had a WC Ball Python, male or female, that I could not get to feed, and thrive in Captivity.

I believe, and it's only a theory, that most don't want to waste their time with WC's. They think, because they heard or read that WC are a pain, and not worth wasting time on. This is repeat so much that most don't even try.

I don't believe everything I read. I look for the truth. I do my own research, to prove or disprove certain things that are stated as fact here in these fourms.

I've been keeping and breeding Reptiles since the late 70's.

If it wasn't for all the Hamper's, Applegate's, Clark's, Love's (this list can go on for quite a while) that did all the dirty work, that got most of these Mainstream Reptiles to thrive in Captivity and Breed, there wouldn't be a hobby today.

To the people reading these post, if you don't wish to work with WC animals, then don't. Don't waste your time if your not willing to put in alot of work with them.

But, don't trash the people who wish to do so.

Every year, I find some real nice animals that I purchase, work with, and get going for further Breeding projects.

I believe this new blood is what is needed for the ncxt Fancy Morph. So does alot of Breeders.

It's not for everyone, not everyone wants to work that hard, and that is fine.
