My internet was compromised a few days ago thus my inability to reply. I'm using another PC and am not able to post the "original stock" photos I'd mentioned, however when I am able to I will in a new thread. Nevertheless, I think the old Vivarium magazine quote was excellent down below and applaud that entry.

Be it as it may, as for the hypo campbelli, I wouldnt be surprised if there were some hypo Hondo influence. I;m not saying there definitively IS, but I wouldnt be surprised given the garbage crosses I've seen that were crossed back to produce what look like a "pure" Pueblan. Unfortunately I never really saw a specimen with my own eyes and never assessed one in a photo long enough to say definitively it was a cross with a Hondo -- although I have seen a couple hypo campbelli that looked slightly questionable over the last few years. Just my observation. Suffice it to say, that if these hybrids/crosses just weren't done, then integrity wouldnt have to be questioned, now would it?

I might mention another dilemma connected to what some initially though were "pure" Ecuadorian milks (L.t.micropholis)......I'd love for homey Shannon (as well a few other known milkheads that were involved) to break that one down, as it provides another good (albeit unfortunate) illustration of the garbage that happens which could just be prevented if honesty/integrity were of paramount concern.

To be continued . . .
