Grab Bags?

[kellysballs]

Back on the subject of "grab bags". I have purchased at least 5 bags in 2007 and 2008 when Michael Cole would bring them in. (thats 50 animals) I was actually there one year when the crate was cracked open and pulled the 3 bags I purchased that year out of the crate. I still have 15 or so of these animals in my collection. Some have layed eggs some haven't yet. I got a couple visual granites some reduced pattern/ interesting pattern animals. A couple of these have proven to be heritable.

In the bags I got about half and half males and females, none had ticks or mites and I gave them their first meal here so they didn't have internal parasites either. CH females are always great animals to have in your collection to help keep blood line fresh. But you have to know how to start baby balls and be comfortable getting babies started.

Another good point I forgot about. Grab bags really aren't for beginners, at least in my opinion. Imported bps, especially ones that have never been fed, can be a real headache. I for one wouldn't do it, but if someone who was prepared for the time and effort, no one is stopping you! I'm also not a gambler and therefor don't go for grab bags of any sort, so my opinion is pretty biased on the subject. If you like to gamble it's definitely a fun way to do it! People just have to be prepared for the amount of work imports are. You can't stick them in a tank and expect them all to start eating.

And forgive me, the high end/new morphs are picked through before they are sent to grab bag people. Josh, are you saying that you don't look through the grab bags at all before they are sent? So they are already pre sorted to a certain number of bps?

How much are these grab bags anyhow?

Oh, and I must say it's comforting to know they babies should be healthy. I have seen pictures of those egg farms, and didn't think of them as a clean environment, but I suppose they are closed off from the outside world. Thanks for your info.

Yes that is what he said.
