Last year I said I was going to buy a Motley and for what ever reason I still have not. I believe I will buy one this year. I really like the Motleys and I also like the Super Motleys. There have been posts up here before about the Super Motleys and I now have a few more questions. I know that there are people out there who post on this board that have all of the answers to my questions and I hope that someone will step up and answer them, not just for my sake but for everyones sake.
A few weeks ago I was at the reptile show at the Tampa Fairgrounds and I was seriously considering buying a female Motley someone had on their table. I asked a lot of questions because he has had Super Motleys, Motleys, and produced them with success. After talking to him and getting some of the answers I got I am not sure I would ever buy a female Motley. He also said that he would never produce a Super Motley again.
WHY AREN'T THERE ANY PICTURES OF ADULT SUPER MOTLEYS ANYWHERE ON THE INTERNET ( OR AT LEAST NONE THAT I AM AWARE OF OR PEOPLE I HAVE ASKED)?
I was told that all Super Motley die usually within two years. I was told that Super Motleys have an unusual tongue flicker as well as they lay on their sides in an unusual way, and from what we all can see is the different shape of their head. I was told that Super Motleys eventually stop eating and end up with IBD like symptoms. I am not saying they have IBD, but similar behavior.
IF SUPER MOTLEYS ALL END UP DYING THEN WHY ARE PEOPLE TRYING TO PRODUCE THEM?
I know in the Ball Pythons there are lethel combinations.
IS IT POSSIBLE THE SUPER MOTLEYS ARE GENETICLY LETHAL?
DO YOU THINK THAT PEOPLE ARE NOT AWARE OF THE END RESULT OF A SUPER MOTLEY AND THAT IS WHY THEY ARE PRODUCING THEM?
BY PRODUCING A SUPER MOTLEY AREN'T YOU WASTING LIFE?
IF WHAT I HAVE BEEN TOLD ABOUT SUPER MOTLEYS IS TRUE DOESN'T EVERYONE THINK PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW?
IF IN FACT ALL SUPER MOTLEYS DIE AND PEOPLE ARE WELL AWARE OF THIS THEN AREN'T PEOPLE GOING TO WIND UP GETTING HURT?
Some people have paid a lot of money or made big trades for Super Motleys with the hopes of a big pay day when they produce.
But from what I have been told a Super Motley will not live long enough to produce. I know some people have posted on this board that Super Motleys are steril. I think common sence should tell us that if no one out there can show the world an adult Super Motley then there is a prety good reason for it.
HOW LONG HAVE SUPER MOTLEYS BEEN OUT?
HAVEN'T SUPER MOTLEYS BEEN OUT OVER FIVE OR MORE YEARS?
I apologize to everyone if it seems like I am running on here but I would like more answers before I get into some kind of a Motley breeding project. I think the answers to these questions will give me and everone a more educated decision before jumping into a new breeding project. I really like the Motleys and as they are now becoming more affordable I want to have one or more. I would really appreciate it if someone would step up and answer my questions. Everyone would benefit from it whether the answers are good or bad.
Thanks for listening.
