Another US Creation.....

[ether]

It's just so un natural, there are no herps like that in the wild and i dont know about other people but i want to keep my collection as natural as possible. Breeding coastals with coastal and diamonds with diamonds etc.

Sure they may look 'cool' but do we really need a reptile to become somewhat of a gimick or fashion accsesory. Do girls really need a pink and white Boa to match their room...i dont think so. I sincerely hope our hobby and pasison doesent become overrun with fake and un-realistic reptiles. JMO

Regards Alex

Sorry to spoil your post ether but you'll find that nearly every albino originated from the wild.The first albino Darwin did,same with the Olives,as well as the burmese ,retics,balls etc in the US..There was an albino maccy caught not too long ago as well as an albino red belly and albino bluey,beardies,adders,the list goes on...they all originated from the wild.

 

[hey_im_sam]

Didn't know about the maccy or the redbelly mate, what's going on with them?

Also, perhaps alex was referring to the 'carpondro'? Not sure though

All i know is the albino macy was caught in Townsville,sorry no pics.

Here's the pic of the red belly tho...has been in a few threads now.

Ricko, It was being looked after at a local University during Xmas holidays and upon returning once they finished to collect it, they where informed that it had died ...

You gotta be kidding me.What an absolute spin out.Guess where i went to boarding school .....Yepoon which is where i guarantee i sat next to that very animal for 2 years in biology,probably the other one as well.I have told a few people about that but not too many ever truly believed me..there's the proof!!!

Teza i will have to have a chat with you,when i went to that school it was in yrs 84/85 so that has to be the one and only same animal!!!!

Unreal,thanks so much for posting that.....legend!!!
