Jorge, I don't know 100% what everyone thinks on the hypos, but I live just down the street from Kevin Maxwell, the originator of the hypos from wildcaught animals from the loves, and last tuesday I went to his house to help him decide what was a pb, het pb, jelly etc in his new clutches. When I was there he pulled up the very first pictures of the very first hypos from 1992 I believe, and explained to me that he hatched out 4 hypos from the unknown het parents and as he wasn't into FL Kings like he is today, showed them to Beard who decided to advertise them and sell them. Kevin didn't know until later that Beard's price tag was a whopping $700 when he was only getting $125 for them. He has the proof, the pictures, and Bonita Gala, another one of his and my friends who saw some of the very first ones. I will see him again this coming tuesday as he has more hatching out and will ask him if he has any of that on the computer, and if he is okay with me posting those original pictures. Thats the story that I got from the mouth of the originator. Hope that helps some. More of a complete story
