Trying at BloodBalls..

[JLC]

Eddie's right, Tiff...once a thread is posted in a public forum, it does not "belong" to the person who posted it. At least, not here. Plus....I'd much rather see anyone who has an issue with this say so in public where the rest of us can step in and intercede if needed...rather than have you harassed in private messages. You can unsubscribe from the thread and choose not to open it again. Kinda harder to do that with private messages.

I honestly did not expect this thread to get like this.. 14 pages of what I didn't want to read. This is exactly why I haven't posted up until now. It was MY choice to do what I wanted with MY snakes. Not anyone else's. I am not an inexperienced keeper; I know the pros and cons of breeding hybrids, and I know some people just won't like it. But it's MY decision to do what I wanted. I am in no way offended by anyone's posts either.

As Spooky stated, I am no longer involved in this project so I don't want to see further posting on my thread. I wanted people to chime in who were interested in this as much as I was and I appreciate the ones who supported my decision to get into this project. If you REALLY had a problem with my decision, I would have much rather respected your opinion if you PMed me directly. I know others will have their opinions on hybrids and that is completely fine as I respect that, but raging in on my thread isn't necessary. Start your own thread.

I think Tiff needs to go through this thread and re read it as her actions speak louder than her words she typed out....she's claimed to be responsible and had project under control, as long as her Blood didn't eat her Ball.

I don't think you did your homework/research the project as you seemed shocked the thread went this way, that's how a forum works.

you use a lot of 'ME', 'MY' & 'I' through out your posts as it comes across as you don't care about your effect on other's in our hobby

then after you put these 2 together you realize it was too expensive to keep this many snakes .....so you dumped your Female Blood and didn't even mention to new owner what you did with your animals while in your collection from the start....that's some what shady...and really helps/hurts out this thread as you didn't do the things you said you would do....what if she did take, you going to get them all back and keep them all even though it takes money to keep animals??

the responsible thing to do is keep her to make sure you know weather or not she is gravid..plus I doubt she'd break the bank as Bloods have super slow metabolism-

Tiff this is not me attacking you, yet I am making an example of your thread, as it's a page by page break down of how somebody can easily taint our watering hole, then move onto the next one with same reckless abandonment..

I see you on BLBC now and I hope you learn as much as possible before making another quick non educated decisions based on curiosity due to lack of knowledge

Tiffany didn't get rid of her Blood because it was getting to pricey, if you read it says she wants to concentrate pretty much solely of bp's, which is why she sold her blood. No wheres does it say "I could not pay for her any longer", it actually says "It was getting kinda pricey with what I had". And I am SURE that she let whoever by the blood knowledge that there was a possibility of her being gravid. She's not stupid no matter how much you try to make her out to be.

With that being said, I am dropping from this thread and I'm pretty sure Tiff is too, so for all those who supported or didn't support, but did so in a good manner. Thanks.

For the rest. *tsk, tsk*

I'm lost now...your first 2 sentences make-a-no-sense.

if what you took from my post is calling Tiff stupid, you clearly missed the point

just to be clear....did she or did she not get rid of the blood due to money issue's cause the word 'pricey' keeps coming up ...never mind...I forgot you are over this thread and it's irrelevant at this point

Thanks for saving me some money guys
I have wanted a blood for a while but after seeing the mentality of other blood owners and ones I might need help from some day I will just stick with my big balls

I never said I couldn't afford my Blood when she gets to her full potential. I did say things were getting pricey food wise, which they were, so I wanted to lower the food bill and have less animals due to getting into Ball pythons more. I breed my own rats so I raise them to feed off to my other Ball pythons when I have no hatchlings.

I already have a large boa and don't want anymore large snakes in my home for now. I have been downsizing my collection slowly for quite some time (a lot quicker now than before) as I had 17 snakes at one point. I didn't want much variety as I did a while back. The only snakes I have now are Ball pythons with two Carpets, two Kings, and a boa which I am using to breed.

I do not feel attacked and see your view on my thread. I understand how some people dislike hybrids and respect that, but I am one who enjoys them and wanted to do produce only one clutch. I am not irresponsible enough to sell them without papers to people who don't know what they are dealing with. I was going to keep them as long as possible until I found the right home for them.

Since these are two completely different species, I find it highly unlikely that they had locked when I wasn't looking because the male just was not having it in him. It can take lots of time for two different species to court. The longest he was with her was for ~2 days.

Hi Tiffany, when posting on a public forum, you can't control how others will respond. Hybrids are a very touchy subject, and almost every thread ends up like this one has.

I didn't realize how out of hand this would get after asking one small question about pairing. I mean, 15 pages and over 4K views...

Although I do understand that just anyone can post their opinion.
