To John C.:
dear sir, i was wondering if you still have Papoose and Indian.
My favorite named mali's I do not own. I hope they are well.

this shouldn't make any sense to YOU-but it all does to me.
papoose, my dude.

Thanks I appreciate the nice words.
Yes that "Indian Princess" was the best young
adult female I ever got from Doug.
By the following season "she" was caught
breeding my top male-mimic mali female!

Hey, we were all learning back in the mid
90s so sexing some of the adult maliensis was
often a good guess at best back then ... lol.
Indian turned out to be one of my best male
breeders for seasons to follow.

Unfortunately I lost him due to a bad wintering a
couple of years ago. Matter of fact I lost several
exceptional uros that year due to unstable weather
as temps would vary so much that winter that it
caused great havoc with many of my best breeders
while brumating.

Little Papoose went to a great home and is doing
just great.

Here's Indian and Papoose (second pic of the two
taken one year later) so others will know just what
you are talking about.
