I asked this question when i first came

FR Oct 18, 2014 10:02 AM

When I first came here. Why is it that hognose axanthics are lacking both red and yellow pigments? I ask because in other species of deli cup reptiles, axanthic means lacking yellow. Anerythristic means lacking red.
Is it simply because a Anerythristic has not been discovered in hognose? Or is there some "other" reason that hognose are protected against what occurs with other colubrid species. Thanks for any insight.

Hogs are protected from it. It was discovered by Roy G. Biv on the Reading Rainbow.

You should watch it, it's right up your mentality level.

Dude, your lost, that was about as dumb as you can get. I miss Steeve. He was genius.

Nasicus when given the opportunity to add to the forum and express your knowledge, you don't, I asked a real question and all you have is childish gibberish.
Your responses are actually becoming pathetic.
I hope someone answers this question, and if they don't, no problem, I will just go on doing what I am doing, not a problem.
This is just another opportunity for you and others to participate, and another opportunity for you to fail. You choose to fail. Which pretty much explains why you act like you do. I am sorry for that and you.

Now you know how so many feel about you and your constant attacks, thread hijacking, overall poor attitude towards anyone that doesnt bend to your will or has knowledge that far exceeds your own.

Its called karma FR, you get what you give sunshine and this is you getting it back in spades.

So exactly how many eggs in this recent clutch of "axanthics" did you kill by "experimenting" on them?

I am not here to make friends, and that is what bothers you. I have to tell you, friends happen, and I have lots of friends. This is a hognose forum and not place to join clicks and be friends.
Also as far as I can tell, all you guys do is fight with eachother, so I am fitting right in.
And about experimenting, I imagine I going to kill a bunch more. Heck even if I don't experiment. That's what happens when you actually DO SOmETHING.
You do understand, folks do not give a crap about your babble. The only people that even think you have any merit are those under 6 years of age.
The sad part is, I am a hognose newbie and I have already added to the hognose arena and will add more and more. What have you done?

Are you still trying to claim that you were first after you got owned?

... if you're referring to axanthic Mexicans, Frank proved his to be inheritable. That fact alone remains the most important one. You and Troy and whomever else wants to can argue the semantics of it until the end of time. However, the fact remains that Frank proved that the axanthism in his snakes is in fact genetic, so yes, he was the first. Whether it's recessive or otherwise is of course important, but secondary. I realize that reality grates on you and others, and it causes you to lose sleep at night. However, even in the darkest recesses of your soul, you can't deny it. Frank proved those animals out, and the other guy didn't. John R. proved that his male had working sperm. Not reproducing the trait is not proof of anything else. It may have been recessive, heck, it is likely that it was, but that has not been proven. Also, I am not picking on Jon R. I have had wild caught albinos of a few types (N watersnakes, N ringnecks, etc.) that I was not able to follow through on, and it happens. What I am picking on is your endless stalking of Frank, because you clearly feel that it will boost your status in your sad, little, school girlish hognose clique. You're like one of my ten year old students who flirts with the opposing gender by telling them that their Momma is fat and they smell fummy. You know, immature, awkward and painful for others to witness. You're a child, grow up.

Hi Will, its KS that allows it to occur. Without question, conflict supports hits and that is good for KS, as hits are important to advertisers.
At first this person was a little creative and it was fun. But as soon as I produced axanthics, which is what I said I was going to do. That person lost their mind and is no longer creative, as they lost all ability to show weakness. I did what I said.
All they can not do is say its not so. Deny, deny deny. Except for one big problem. I did indeed produce exanthic kennerlyi. I took some pics today, will post them later. And in drawers too. hahahahahahaha
ALso, I am ready to move the Coca Cola cage in and put it to use. Then start the next one.
Anyway, I will keep producing them and add to the support of what genetics they are.
Whats funny is, that person has no grasp of what founders mean. hahahahahahahaha Their heads are stuck in deli cups. hahahahahahahaha
