one more thing.... on the 10 east x 9 north, this is not about Ric or Dave or looks, it's about the animals and something a bunch of us KNOW to be true because we saw it with our own eyes and the old Buzzard also verbally confirmed to us.



So I understand why all these guys that got dupped are butt hurt, but come on man, bottom line is this it's eaither a locality snake or it's not. If you're sure it's a locality snake then you should be able to trace paternal and maternal lineages to WC. If not then it's UNKNOWN, and the only thing left to do is call it generic.



I've asked more than once for someone to post the linegae, but I'm not holding my breath because I know where it began.



So most of the folks reading this make ASSUMPTIONS THAT IT'S ABOUT THE PEOPLE - WRONG - it's about these snakes and lack of documentation.



NOW HERE'S SOMETHING ELSE THAT CHAPS MY ASS



WTF is wrong with generics? Some of these snakes are kick ass, and I own them myself. Why would you want to crap on your generics by saying they are something that they aren't? There is no shame in owning a generic!!!!



LOVE YOUR SNAKES GENERIC AND LOCALITY ALIKE! Just call it what it is!



Kudos to Chris Drake who obviously understands this concept. He posted photos of his beautiful generics and is obviously proud of them.







definitions for the this thread



LOCALITY: Traceable lineage to WC snakes from the same locality.

I don't care how far apart they are as long as the localities are stated, buyers can make up their own minds.



GENERIC: Lineage is not traceable to WC
