>>Yeah, see that is how it starts. The guy that bought it will show up here and post his photo. Then someone here says ... nope..... instant BS prove your lineage argument, and who is to blame? Do we just let it slide? Not me... I'll be the first to tell him he got DUPED.... I have no problem telling them what I think

I know what you mean Joe...I have even emailed folks from the classifieds letting them know they are advertising crosses and hybrids as something they are not...pure.....

But I always get a feeling like....Who am I do police this?
Then I feel like I have to continue being the one who has to call someone out....Hell I called out Aubrey last year on her Greeri/Thayeri crosses....But I thought she had to know....
I even had to get in an argument concerning an aberrant/striped looking thayeri that was produced last year.....It resembeled the aberrant ruthveni gene, but I still don't know if it was pure thayeri or not....With all of the line breeding taking place, hidden genes are found...That is why I am soooo surprised an amel thayeri hasn't been produced since that questionable one back in 1993 in Austin...Coincidentally it was produced just 6 years after the amel Ruthveni clutch was produced in 1987. Just enough time to produce hets, raise them up and produce an amel thayeri cross.....Just my opinion, but the guy may not have even known what he had.....And he thought it was pure thayeri....

You should see some of the emails a few of us pass around concerning "weird" looking mexicana.....I will continue to do my background checks and provide lineage information as it is provided to me.....I would like to think I can tell if a snake is a cross or not......

What do you think this is Joe?
