oooh pretty

[Corey Woods]

Don't you mean one that you collected out of a WC shipment a couple years ago?

Corey

[Todd]

Corey ,
These stripes were produced by me here.

[BoidKeeper]

I edited out all the flames. Now I am asking you two both to leave it at this. If you two want to do any more back and forth you can take off this site.
Thanks,
Trevor

[Todd]

Thanks Trevor I agree.
I only wanted to show some people the snakes I am working with.
I didnt expect to be pounced on!

Todd

[BoidKeeper]

Don't thank me Todd. I don't always agree with the rules I enforce but I did agree to enforce them and they say no flaming. So whether I agree with it or not is irrelevant.
I think Todd if you did more than just post animals in order to show new people what you have in order to add credibility your post might be better received. Most people who sell snakes also post answers to questions and try and help people along the way as well as sell animals to them.
Cheers,
Trevor

[Todd]

I have done my share of answering questions as well as hosted my own Reptile shows and I have been in this hobby/business a long time.

I am sure there are alot of people who love checking out new ball python pics.If any of the people have questions I do my best to answer them.

I dont have to post pics of my animals to add credibility.
My name is very strong in the reptile field and will continue to be.

I can tell you why some people get upset when I post things.

Its because I always give customers good deals.

I always sell my reptiles a bit cheaper and I have taken the time to actually talk to people and help them along with breeding or whatever it may be.

I even take the time to deliver snakes to people who may not have a car or maybe I will meet them halfway if its a long distance.

I have never thought of myself as being to busy or to good to take time for my customers and will continue to help anyone who asks.

These are the kinds of thing I do to make people a bit more happy when doing business with me.
I like the business and I love my reptiles.
I hope it shows the next time you see me at a show.
I am reachable.

I have always done well in the reptile business and I thank the people who buy from me.

Thanks again,
Todd Constable.

Todd, How do the genetics of the striped balls work? If this has been answered just post a thread.

thanks, Mark

PS from the pics I've seen you have some kicka$$ animals

So you don't agree with the "no flaming" rules at ssnakess.com?

[BoidKeeper]

No Jeff I agree there should be no flaming here are ssnakess.com. I guess what I'm saying is sometimes I take down things that I believe may be true but because they are flaming in nature I feel that this site is no place for it. If you think someone is dirty than I think you should tell in an email or a PM or in person. I've seen too many sites and groups break up because people say it like it is in the open. Whether what's being said is true or not, saying out in the open where everyone can jump in has never proven to be good for any site so far. So again, although some of the stuff being said may be true, I don't think it should be said in the forums because it's bad for the site as a whole.|
Cheers,

Todd: no offense, but that 'reputation' that you speak of certainly preceeds you, but it's not for any of the reasons you mentioned.
" I hope it shows the next time you see me at a show"
You mean you'll actually BE at the next one, or you'll be M.I.A. like the one last week?
Also, there's a line from one of my favorite musicals "Jesus Christ Superstar" and it goes; "What's that buzz, tell me what's a happenin' (repeated numerous times). You need to hear the buzz, Todd.

[TheRedDragon]

:jawdrop: Wow! I LOVE that stripe! Gorgeous! :)

Sorry, I know that's off topic as to what's being posted above, but, I just had to say something about that beautiful BP. :)

[Todd]

Thanks for the compliments on the striped ball.
I am not sure how the stripe gene will work yet.
These all cam from the same litter from a female that was partially striped herself.
I am hoping to breed the 1 male sibling back to his mother and also to his striped sister and a normal.
This will prove if it is infact genetic and also by breeding to the normal,this will tell us if its recessive or not.

If it turns out genetic we will then have the opportunity to breed it to the only other Stripe ball gene out there from Bob Clark to see if they are compatible to each other.

Thanks,
Todd.

[boidlover]

Whether they are WC or CB, Todd's, Corey's or bubba joe smith from across the way, it's still a very beautiful Ball Python.

I agree Chewie. And as a person/business that spends a hefty amount on advertising here, I don't want to see that crap either.

[Bristen]

ok, this is waaay off-topic, but I HAVE to know.. how did Trevor get the nick name "Chewie" Jeff??? lol!

Bristen

[Jeff_Favelle]

LOL Bristen. I had a string of good LUCK last year and had like 150 babies born within a short time. It LOOKED like I knew what I was doing and stuff so Trev. started calling me Yoda. Naturally, Crannie being the good-looking one was Hans Solo, so that left Chewie for Trev. LOL!!

Yeah..............

[Bristen]

LOL!! You folks crack me up sometimes... snake people can be so odd sometimes :D

thanks for clearing that up Jeff, now I can go on in peace.. was such a troubling question hehe...

Bristen.

[BoidKeeper]
