    ever sold a het as a normal?

    I was wondering how common it is for someone to sell off hets and possible hets as normals? I know that I had a friend that before he moved he sold his collection off as normals. and he had a bunch of het albinos and poss het clowns. I was just wondering if any of you have done it.

    the breeder we work with on a regular basis does all the time.. as jasballs said, mostly males. its hard to sell a het for ________ to general public. impossible to prove which is poss het and which is normal though, thats the most common reason as far as i know

    Re: ever sold a het as a normal?

    I have from this year.

    I got 2 66% poss het Albino girls last summer and they both dropped eggs. The breeder I got them from says they were both paired with a small Albino male, but after not seeing locks or any real follicle progess let them go. So the hatchlings should be het albinos, but because I did not do the breeding I can not guarantee it. I kept the females to prove and am selling the males as normals. I am letting the buyers know the situation and will inform them if the females do prove out.

    I also sold my 50% poss het pied males as normals.

    I would guess it happens a lot with males ...

    Many 100% het albino males, 66% het pied males, 66% het albino females were sold as nomals to the general public.

    I also mixed up a a 100% het albino breedable male as a normal. The people at the show think it was a normal but it was 100% het albino. I will see them this month to make sure they know. lol. They got a Gary messed up deal .

    But a lot of males get sold off her as normals also.

    I let people know what they actually are, but they are priced the same as normals. At that price though most people don't really care if they are het for anything, they're just looking for a pet.
