I'm sure I did ask those questions/more

I'm sure I did ask those questions. Your memory is correct. However, those questions did stop short of saying what was said earlier here. I think that someone who knows how they were doing or what they are doing now, should have been the one to give those details publicly. My posts opened the door for that discussion. That discussion should have been lead by the person with the most experience and the most informative answers. But it don't happen.

For instance, if there was an issue or problem with Pearlescent Boas, I would be the one to tell people about it, and I would. Bob Potts with the Aztec Boas has been forthright and honest about the Aztec Boas. In that case he is the founder of that project and he stepped up to the plate and told people the truth.

I guess it's really just a difference in the way the question is asked here and the way I did it suspecting what the answers were but not knowing. I'd rather leave it wide open to interpretation or allow for more "reading between the lines". However, I really didn't know for sure what anyone should read between the lines, until after I made those posts requesting those pics that never came.

It's a little like this: Say I have a brand new morph of Boa. I have the Tribal Boa. I don't know if it's genetic or not yet. Imagine I breed it and produce half a litter of Tribal Boas. Then 18 months later I breed a Tribal to a tribal and I just produce 75% Tribals and no Super. What do I do? Well I personally tell people myself. Some would let that stay secret as long as possible not negatively impact the sales of Tribal Boas. As the leader of that project, honesty would force me to tell people the truth. That's the difference between some people. If I know, by virtue of being the leader with the Tribals, and I know the truth, I would make sure people knew the truth.
