I haven't followed all of Gus's posts on the topic, so I can't be sure one way or the other of his use of various terms, but I do know that when Chris purchased one from Gus in Daytona, Gus wrote "hyper" on the receipt.
As for the promotion of the other line of animals, no one can know what was going through the resellers head. I really do feel that he THOUGHT they were the same trait, just popping up in different litters from different breeders with unrelated animals. And I think he may have jumped the gun with the label.
As for the statement:
"As far as it not being the boa communities place not to correct that lable, who's place will it be? I will not be the one who takes that responsibility but I will contest it and question it."
I agree that we can contest it and question it, but to force a new label on it is something we can't do. We can make our best case, collectively, and present it to the originator, but in the end, it's his choice. I don't feel like we could change the name "hyper" or "hyperpigmented" anymore than we could change the name "mario bros boas". To restate, I still feel "hyperpigmented" is an appropriate label.
On a side note, if I ever produce something unique, inheritable and wacky, I'm calling it the MARIO BROS BOA! Just putting that out there now so no one steals it! lol
Thanks for the input Joel!
