LOL, SOME of us had to give up our favorites to expand their horizons a little, sometimes it's good to know what's gonna come out of an egg! As for me, I haven't much to report, haven't purchased new animals in quite a while, and a few things never panned out last year. I'll have a single pair to breed, funkiest pair you guys will see this year I'm betting! And I have 3 2 YO's coming up and a pair of '09's coming along that took quite a bit of tlc to get going. All in all it was a hard year for me, but if your interests vary, as mine do, and you are into field herping and acquiring your own specimens, as I do, then you could see why I don't post too much. I'm always (mostly) there with an attaboy (or girl) when someone posts their cool additions. I agree with Michelle and Mike, it's slow because it's that time of year. With these stoopid cold snaps continuing, I'm reluctant to bring up some animals, my thayeri are down for the count, my alterna are up, go figure, my getula adults are still down, the yearlings are up, my local rats are down, the Mexican bairdi are chowin down and she is gravid already, my gophers are up, my hogs are down, now if that isn't crazy, I don't know what is, the gophers and hogs are from the exact same locality but it is a fact. Plus, I spend an inordinate amount of time on another forum. Because I field herp. I like to do that more when I can, if I could field herp these guys, you can bet I'd be putting up some cool stuff. It'll get better but with the economy and the freaky weather, I don't think it's gonna be the machine you were used to, plus lots of older posters left disgusted over local laws and other dillweed reasons. Hopefully we can capture the attentions of a whole new generation of mexicana heads.
