This is the first time I think I have posted here...I'm not a Indigo keeper but you guys have some interesting discussions and great photos of some great animals. Anyway, back in the mid 80's I had the pleasure to hear Dr. Speake give a talk at NC State U. about his Indigo program. Everyone was blown away by his slides of his captive breeding program and breeding facilities at Auburn. Back then the captive breeding of herps was just beginning to take off and he was truly a pioneer in Indigo breeding which unfortunately I think a lot his work goes unrecognized. It would be nice if he would contribute his knowledge online.
