Not at all...just funny, and I find it odd as well. I understand the point of full genetic documentation with photo ID and such when it comes to hets...
I think it's inexperienced keepers just mimicking what they've seen or heard without really knowing what they are asking for.
Ok. Honestly I thought it was ridiculous the first time someone asked too, but after the third or forth I was starting to wonder if I had missed something. Between this and the person telling me my cinny was a normal I was starting to feel like a was losing my mind a tiny bit. Glad to know its the other people who are nuts.
