Hi Wade,

Good point. Many bp enthusiasts are novices who are just learning the ropes themselves, so they don't have a very deep knowledge base regarding the animal itself. However, some are more than willing to give poor, second hand advice that they read "somewhere". Sadly, most of the knowledge in that community does revolve around the newest morph combos. Just read some of the comments posted in the last week or so regarding basic husbandry factors such as ovulation...yikes. There are obviously some folks who clearly have more than a few years in the hobby, including some who post on this board also. However, many are new "trustfund" experts just entering the hobby with daddy's dollars and a dream. Money clearly doesn't buy experience. Thanks.

Will
