Not saying those photos are photoshopped, but. . .

Something does not look quite right about those photos. I don' know, I am no expert, but to my eye something definitely looks "off."



I remember reading something somewhere that quoted Ralph Davis talking about morphs. He said something to the effect that brand-new morphs would never just end up on the classifieds. Big breeders would have already had the opportunities to snatch them up, and got them via their connections with exporters in Africa.



And think about it, if a true "red ball" or two were discovered, $1000 is VERY CHEAP!!! Someone like Ralph or the Barkers or Sutherlands would be offering a much higer and undisclosed amount of money for something that new and different if they believed it could be a new lucrative morph. So when Joe Nobody offers $1000 for a brand-new and dynamically different animal, it's probably not worth the imaginary dollar signs that pop up in their eyes. Just my opinion.
