Okay Jeff,....look closely at most ALL of their temporal bands and snouts after you come back from the optometrist's office, THEN tell me all of them are 100% campbelli!..HAHAHAHAAA!!



"do my homework indeed"..LOL!......BTW, were YOU there when the very first one's were hatched-out??,..and did YOU see the parent stock origin??. Then beyond that to suggest to me that NONE were ever introduced to any Honduran's afterwards is also very hard for me to fathom as well.



See, I "would" post a whole slew of pics of these here for people to look at, but my intent is definitely NOT to slander people's animal's here, but to merely point out the characteristics that I continually keep seeing in many of them.



I remember seeing killer-looking hypo Hondurans in 1995 that were not just "clean" with no tipping just prior to that, but these had VERY reduced melanin with ruby-red eyes too($2,000 bucks). They could have hit the seen just before THAT even, but I can't be 100% positive there, but in any case, I am quite sure there was time to introduce the trait into campbelli before that with some of the hypo Honds. prior to that. If not from the super-nice Honduran hypos, some of the slight lesser reduced one's from before that even. Then all someone needed to do was re-introduce some nicer-looking Hypo Honduran's later on anyway. Why is this so impossible to believe?



Someone give me the "PROOF" that there is no way this ever happened,... huh??...LOL!



When I see many that have these extremely thin, very set-back temporal bands with most of their parietal scales showing solid black, and full-blown strait across, defined snout bands, yeah Jeff, it makes me have to go .......hmmm???
