Those pictures are sitting as attachments in a TON of email Inboxes all over the virtual ball python world ... Ball python breeders are some of the most gossipy people on the planet (Hi Kettle, I'm Pot ;) ) ... Talk to enough people and someone might come off of it????? :sweeet:

LOL!!! You can check my computer, I have a huge file of pics of almost every snake I have ever looked at on the computer. I always label them and if those people say they produced something cool, I can go back and look closer. ;) I can only imagine all the pics that Adam has on his computer. LOL!!!!

I am screwed :O

Oh I know everyone's all gossipy, I think it's hilarious. Some people get so uptight about things or jealous and then act like 5 year olds on a playground. The RDR forums are evidence enough. :rolleyes:

I talked to Jon Dvoretz about the SS awhile back when I bought Diego from him. He has a stripe obsession like I do so we were discussing the "special" mom since he'd seen her before. He has the picture somewhere but trying to find it is another story. lol! :D

What do the RDR forums have to do with breeders passing pictures of "secret" breeding projects to each other behind the scenes? I think that you and I are talking about two totally different kinds of "gossip". :confuzd:

For whatever it's worth, some of those so called "5 year olds" over on RDR are very good friends of mine ... care to mention who you find particularly "uptight"? Maybe I can call them up and have a talk with them for you? ;) :sweeet:

It just seems like everyone acts so immature. They're really quick to jump on people or argue about petty things.

Neil is definitely one of them...:rolleyes:

I brought up the RDR forums because you mentioned that breeders are gossipy...it goes both ways, in public and in secret. Yes, everyone passes pictures and secret project info to each other behind the scenes, but they also talk about each other in public -- about projects, who produced something first, where someone got an animal or how they got something produced, etc.

So it's "everyone"? Well, you know what they say, if you don't like it .... :P

Why not bring up Kingsnake, Fauna, TSK, NERD Froums, Clark Forums, etc?? Why single out RDR as if there is some monopoloy over there on gossip?

My "point" was that the "gossip" that I am referring to is not the same as the stuff that gets posted on message boards ... Message boards are a million miles away from the real BP universe ... The message boards are more like "marketing venues" ... the real info gets exchanged over the phone and via email in this biz.

Well apparently not "everyone" ... hence your (and others) request for a picture of Jareds female that produced the super stripes. ;)

Who does? Not the "big breeders" ... you don't see Ralph, Kevin, Tracy, or any of those guys out there on forums doing that stuff ... they don't have to ... the people out there "yapping" are the people trying to be recognized ... they are trying to be recognized so that they don't have to "yap" anymore.

:banana:

It's lame either way. :rolleyes:

I didn't mean everyone in a literal sense either...more like broad generalization to encompass those that do so.
