Unless it's a new morph, what's the point? Combos are cool but if it's something like a pastel super Enchi clown spider special. You have to have adults with enough of the traits het clown. Not alot of risk in that. And to let everyone know just drives sales. As long as you have them to sell. IMO
its marketing yes,

its also keeping your "big name" a big name.
reputation is a profitable thing. the better the rep. the better the sales.
im telling you now i'd give vital organs to have some of
the more rediculously gorgeous and exotic morphs.
and kevin at NERD knows all to well.
you dont sell your secrets.
when they are no longer secrets, they're non-profitable.
if kevin gave out all his recipes and ralph, brian, all the "up there"
breeders, they wouldn't have the money to produce
the inpiration in small time hobbyists to come out with their own "next big thing"


just my 2cents,
