I don't want to go much further on this, You have a great animal and don't want to ruin your thread. Your right it doesn't belong here. But I was the "unknowing person" and had my own run in and I was pissed that nobody said anything until after the fact. So I open my mouth and give some warning if possible. Id also like to explain what I ment by "new" You are great you obviously have some good experience and knowledge. Definitely not new to the keeping of reptiles of different species. When I say new I mean to the business side (keeping, breeding, selling, trading, contracted partnerships, breeding loans, vending at shows ect) This you are new too. In stepping into that side of reptiles you met a lot of people, all the big boys. Not only will you have your own personal experiences with people (as Ive had mine with manny it is posted in the boi, the animal in question(manny had for close to 2 yrs) is on antibiotics and still being brought back to good health. but you also hear other peoples personal experiences. Manny is black listed nobody who has been in this biz for 10 yrs plus will even acknowledge his existence, Look on his fan page for example everybody there are "hobbyist" and "keepers". Manny puts on a good show he has money, a big website, he mass produces animals. I fell for it, and many others will. but pretty packaging and nice animals does not make you a stand up and honest guy. Start emailing some of the big boys they have horror stories with that man. Anyway, I wont go any further on this. Just trying to be helpful. And definitely not trying to insult you in anyway, you have quite a bit of knowledge it seems and I look forward to seeing you produce some nice stuff!
