I have done the same with varanids, you know, explore growth and reproductive potential.



I recieved great results over 20 years ago. No one has equaled those results, oh until lately. A keeper from the UK is now equally many of my records for potential. Their potential. The animals potential.



You as a frog keeper should understand what potential means, explosive potential. Reptiles have potential as well, just not so explosive.



The reality is, its not about me, or the keeper, its about the animals. When you folks make it about me or any keeper. Your lost and its sad.



The reality is, its only about the animal, and its potential, and you the individual keeper. ITs about whether that keeper is willing to support it or not.



Whats sad is, you/most of you, keep kingsnakes in a way, its difficult to learn from the animal. Blind keeping so to speak. So all you know how to do is learn from other keepers and confirm that with the animals. Truth is, again, its not about the keepers, or the methods, its about each animals potential.



Many of you talk and make fun of choices. Again in reality, its not about choices, unless those choices include the ability for the animals to make decisions that allow the animal to attempt to reach its own potential.



Sorry I just returned from the bush, whenever I do that, it makes it hard to look at sweater box husbandry. As it has nothing what so ever to do with Kingsnakes and their potential.



Best wishes and congrats



By the way, it was 99 healthy hatchlings from three 18 month old cal kings. which equals 33 offspring per female. Each had two large clutches. Whats if interest is, most folks think young females are suppose to have tiny clutches and have trouble doing so. I have to wonder where you get that idea?



Whats great about you guys is, you never ask, you just twist and turn to fit your outlook.(on a street level, that means, cover your ARSE)(and this is a street level) So what happened to those females? and what was learned from what they did? Thats the important part.



And thanks for confirming that I have done my job. I have to wonder why you keep me on your mind?
