    How rude...
    "You're from Florida and I have delt with about a dozen breeders from that state...NONE of them know anything about proper husbandry to maintain a longterm breeder. For what it's worth, I've been herping since 5 years old...35 years now and have been breeding for 20 years..."

    "...My (and every breeder I know) won't breed a male below 1500 grams...females no smaller than two years and 2500 grams..."

    Brian's response to my bulletin on myspace about my male gettin 'er done at his size...

    These are only a couple of things that were posted in his reply to my bulletin...How rude to just make an assumption about Florida breeders. And as far as my male is concerned, He's healthy, producing sperm and I'm attempting to breed him. End of story...He's being closely monitored (weight & ect,...) and fed...and is given plenty of down time (2 days on 3 days off)...

    I understand having concern for the animal not knowing the person who is breeding it. I think it's wrong that people breed animals to death, but to reply with some of the things this guy has said is just wrong...

    Some just love to piss other's off. How old is your male and how much does he weigh? Is he getting her done?

    who is Brian?

    That's one hell of a stereo type to put on "all Florida breeders" He apparently doesn't know where to look. I've been in contact with quite a few people down here that are pretty damn smart. Greg Graziani for instance?

    Oh ya! Thanks! I am officially a changed man lol... naw, but it is something you can't really describe...I've seen boa's locked up in person but...to see your own animals for the first time breeding it's amazing...i've never bred before so this should be one of the most memoriable experiences ever. FOR ME atleast...


    ONCE AGAIN, best of luck to everyone this year! Woohoo!

    What a completely prejudiced and rude statement. He should apologise to all Florida breeders. :(
