    Alright Justin. Post some pictures of the most normal looking het clowns you have hatched I would like to see how "normal" they look. Can you find any pictures of the hets you have produced that don't have a blushed out head or a head spot? Or one that doesn't have high whites around the alien heads? Not calling you out either, I just want to see some of these animals that you say look normal. I'm curious if my eye is drawn to different things.

    Most likely not though, but I will be attempting to prove them out if I can get the females weight up by October. I will be breeding her to a male clown I'm planning on purchasing soon.

    Het clowns or not the animals are not what the buyer paid for. They were marketed as purchased from and produced at NERD. They were not that right there means refund and animals get returned, het clowns or not its a lie and shady business and simply going "meh they still might be het clowns" just means you're ok with the untruthful business practices as long as in the end you come out on top..

    What happens next time they decide to put someone Else's name on that piece of paper?? what if next time it's yours

    Though I have said I'm confident that those snakes will prove out, I still believe what this guy did was wrong. Have I missed a BOI thread? It sounds like one is warranted here. Also, this OP must feel pretty bad knowing he was scammed, why wouldn't he want to save the next guys emotions? Just saying.

    I wanted to add that I never said I could pick two random animals out of a group of snakes and prove them to be something. What I asked the poster was if has bred the animals out that he said looked like these that were not het clowns. I know plenty of people that wholesale possible hets off all the time as normals, myself included. Does that make it possible for these normals that people are buying at pet shops as normals to be possible hets of any reccesive morph? Of course it does. Therefor, for somebody to say he sees normals like that all the time that are just that "normals" is a strong statement. Is my statement about those animals proving out strong...Yep. That is my opinion though.

    In regards to being misled by my post...If you read my other posts, I stated you should only by hets from somebody you trust or somebody reputable. But, I read a thread a while ago where a het from BHB never proved out and BHB was having a hard time making the situation right. So who knows who to trust right?

    Hold up, before you go putting BHB's name on blast like that think about it. I believe I know the thread your talking about, and it was a snake bought second hand that was supposedly from BHB. IMO Brian owes some one who bought a second hand snake nothing. Who knows if that snake even came from BHB. Brian produces top notch stuff, and I personally have been happy with everything I have gotten from him.
