I had to get out of the hobby two years ago due to a divorce. I had to sell all of my animals including a subadult Ultramel. I regret selling them to this day. Fortunately, today I'm in the position to slowly build up my collection. I agree with you concerning your position on some "big breeders" and I would include a large breeder on your list of good guys on my list of pompous jerks in the hobby. However, my suggestion to you is keep your animals, buy from trusted breeders, and take chances on other breeders who seem honest. After all, nothing in life is guaranteed except for the fact you will regret selling off your animals.
