Zenny. I'm quite sure the photos of your incredibly beautiful snakes are well-recieved by most forum readers. I'm not sure most people, perhaps just hobbyists like me who just enjoy having a snake or two as pets, are so concerned about these labels based on all the technical aspects involved in the breeding of that particular snake. I just can't follow it or understand it, and am not really interested in the genetics and all of that although I understand how important it is and the hard work and research that must be involved. Obviously this is serious business to some folks out there on this forum, who could probably write books on the subject of Brooksi and other snakes, and based on what I've read here on the forum they just may have.



I just agree with your suggestion that when it comes to complaints or others taking issue with what you or another breeder is labeling a brooksi, consideraton should be given toward taking a better approach such as personal emails, phone calls, etc. to address the matter. Developing a continuous thread of negativity on this otherwise positive, relaxed and enjoyable kingsnake forum will most likely turn off the average reader who tunes in to learn and appreciate the running dialogue of questions, comments, photos, etc. They just may not come back basically due to a few no-it-alls taking over and that would be a shame. Thanks again, and good luck with your collection. Jim
