Panther Chameleon, Local Mafana

[marisa]

No one looks evil. LOL. This is a simple conversation. That's it.

You keep saying "What try something once and give up because it doesn't work?" Try WHAT exactly?! I don't understand what you even want to accomplish? You want to be a full time breeder? thats awesome! But could someone do that at this point in time in Canada alone without shipping to the states? I doubt it, but why not try it anyways? You could ship to the states, and that would make it totally possible. You would need to rely on a large part on American buyers though. Which if set up for this, shouldn't cause you trouble.

You want to breed chams, awesome! It will be sweet thats for sure. You want to breed other species, again amazing. I hope you have amazing luck.

But other than that I am not sure what you think we all need to make happen?!?! You keep repeating yourself with less explanation than anyone else here. You then go on to tell everyone how you already know all this and we wasted our breath?

"But sometimes people just dont come up with that one idea that can set everything off with a bang."

Set WHAT off? The market isn't small because we have made it that way, or because we haven't tried to change things, or because we want it tiny. There is NOTHING to change aside from the population and more buyers. The reptile hobby will grow or stay roughly the same size based on population. You cannot force more people in Canada to become herpers. This isn't "negativity" but it's somewhat odd to assume we can somehow force a market surge for chameleons.

"ts not the breeders that make up the market its the buyers.
well who would have known, good thing that was pointed out.
Not to be rude but come-on now"

And that one of the rudest statements in this thread. If you cannot comment on things I say in a poliet manner, as I was to you, I am sorry but don't expect any help or positive comments from now on with the attitude you have. I was poliet to you, and simple gave an opinion. You belittle what I say like I thought you were an idiot. When you really have no idea how my post was meant to come off.....which was a simple observation/opinion.

If you want to breed, breed. Otherwise I don't see what your issue is. Although you have heard this all before right? It seems you know just about everything so why do you even care about our thoughts on it? LOL ? It shouldn't matter to you since you have knocked down everyones thoughts and advice.

uhh...if you really want me to answer that question, I guess I could but you might want to take a moment of pause about asking me.

Im sorry merisa but your comment might not have been rude it certainly was condicending.
What this thread was about was to figure out new ways to help educate the public on reptiles, and help in conservation of the delpeeting number of reptiles in the wild due to irrespossible deporting. The number of herps collected to the number that actually make it to live a full healthy life is something that deffinatly needs to change.
My goal here was not to make any enemies. And i certainly hope that I have not.
And obviously I do not know everything but the only things you guys were telling me was nothing but common sence.
The probleme with the internet is the fact that it is way to easy to judge a person by simply reading a post.

And Chris, wow thanks alot bud. If I dont know how to care for chameleons then I wonder why mine are doing so well? Hmm its a mazing they are still alive. Plus all my posts, certainly hope no one takes my bs advice. Ill be killing chameleons all over canada.

peace

"might not have been rude it certainly was condicending. "

I am sorry you took it that way. In fact, when I wrote my first post that was actually the last thing from my mind.

"My goal here was not to make any enemies. And i certainly hope that I have not."

Of course not. No one makes enemies in a simple conversation. What looks heated on forums can bring about the best information if no one looses their head. And no one has in this thread so far. lol
