Fantastic Rob. This here is very promising and really is a great beginning to help extinguish the paranoid rumors concerning early death.
But buddy,.. how about some figures and cold hard data. I'm trying to compile some data here so as to build a set of facts to set a precident. So any details about some of these animals would be very helpful, if at all possible. Even if the accounts are mildily ballpark, like "about 15 years old" or "maybe 10 years old when it died". It sounds like you could have a wealth of information there that could really help this cause of mine. Naturally, as a breeder of burmese I would love nothing more than to have all of this disproved. So I'd really appreciate anything additional you could lend here, detail-wise. Thanks Rob.
And your new place looks fantastic! Concrats on your aspirations finally coming to fruition.
>>In all of my years keeping/breeding burms, and, rescuing over 50 burms each year (not to mention the long term adult I have that range in age from 6-26 years of age) I have never heard anything like this.....if anyone would have a chance on experiencing it would be me due to the high volume of sick burms that we take in (and we have only lost one or two over the years; primarily due to RI or complications due to RI)...hopefully, our strict quarantine procedures has prevented a severe outbreak. But, I have heard of viruses wiping out entire herp collections (not just specifically burms)...pretty scary stuff. ----- "If I had 365 enemies it would only take a year out of my life to settle all scores."
