Re: Just sayin'
But those images help prove if a parent is actually het for anything. If you breed an albino to a het albino and you take pictures of the baby albinos in goo you have proof that that parent is het. I guess you don't really care about hets do you Todd?

Re: Just sayin'
How is it to prove genetics?? First you can't look at a boa and know what's happening genetically in there all the time secondly they don't have mom and dad in the goo pick half the time they don't even have mom...maybe her rear end shooting babies out! It simply excitement and pride that pol do goo pics. And sadly I've noticed pol post them for advertising takes the fun outta forums

I understand that completely. I would personally just keep those for sharing with prospective buyers to prove the genetics, if I was into that type of thing. I'm a believer in posting images that can attract people to these animals, not images that could potentially repulse them, lol. Try to think of it from an outside perspective

As for feeding well I may be guilty of that a little bit, but not with a snake. Just an immature impulse to video my CWD's killing a mouse or displaying the awesomeness of my Piranhas shredding a rat. Like I said I know it's immature but I just can't thinking that's an awesome display of power in my animals.
One thing though, I don't like to watch an animal suffer. The piranhas and the Water Dragons are usually extremely quick deaths. In the event that I have to feed my snakes live I usually turn away after they've got the prey in their clutches. You know being hugged to death really has to suck

Re: Just sayin'
I understand the idea of only posting pictures that would attract the general public to these animals, but it's not like "goo" or yolk is exclusive to snakes...

Re: Just sayin'
I love the baby boa goo! Getting to dig through it and haul them all out, clean them off, and put them together in a tub. Such a nice feeling.
I don't feel it is repulsive in any way. Multiple people have seen the pics on my Facebook of the after birth, and they have nothing but good to say about it, except the occasional, "EWW SNAKES"!
I have lots of pictures of my daughter right after she was born, and she is quite slimy, lol, and whenever my friends see them they just get emotional and say they want children of their own now. Not really the same thing, but just saying, it's not repulsive to people who understand the beauty of new life coming into the world... whether that is animal or human life.

Let me take another stab.
If you are looking to purchase a female anery het albino you would ask t see litter pics. A picture with all of the babies in the goo would be hard to fabricate. This method would only work with honest sellers. These types of pictures also help establish the genetics of the other babies. If someone says they are 66% het but the litter pictures don't show any visuals...

Re: Just sayin'
I like the goo  I don't breed snakes nor plan on it, so it's not something I always see.
