Personally, I'd feel pretty damn bad whether I kill a clutch of normals or a clutch of whatever morph you want to fill in the blank with. It's sad this kind of mentality exists in the hobby world.

If you try to argue that it's worse killing an expensive clutch than a normal clutch, you missed the point.
Unfortunately can't relate to your point, a personal preference versus a sales pitch is hardly a comparison... No one wants to lose any babies normal or otherwise, my point was stating that I an going to intentionally put an embryo at risk for the sake of my experiments therefor rather not do it with an egg that contains a potentially substantial return on investment.


In your defense the guy trying to up sell a snake like that would sicken me.
