Re: Neurological issues poll

The only reason to breed something with known issues of any kind is to make money. You breed, they buy. If you're doing it for the joy of breeding, you're not going to care if you're making morphs or not. You only make morphs, and inbreed animals, when you want to make money.
This argument goes around and around, and really doesn't even need to be brought up again to have us all discuss it.
People are going to breed, make a living, other people are going to disagree, think it's bad for the animals. *shrug*

No one is going to sway anyone to any side. What's the point? Most of us here are pretty well established in our opinions.

While I agree with you 100% on this, it's not the point of the poll...I'm just curious to see the numbers. I'm not really looking at much of the 'logic' because as you say, it's repetitive from other threads.

i disagree that the ONLY reason is for money

i breed to create top quality carpet pythons for their beauty,imo,the jaguar colour and pattern mutation,has created some of the very best looking carpets out there.

i'd gladly give away the the rest of the clutch,after i picked my holdbacks

so it's NOT all about money pal

cheers shaun
