nice one Scott. If ever you were going to want to be wrong, this would be the sort of situation
I'm useless. I see my royals ovulate and then afterwards wonder if they really have... The only time i'm sure is once they're coiled round the eggs

There's been a couple of girls I completely missed, only finding the eggs when changing water dishes

15 clutches just means I'm very lucky
It's an interesting point though Jon, I had a conversation with someone last week and the suggestion was that someone who produces 50 to 100 young from a species was bordering on being commercial, I suggested that perhaps the person could actually argue that they are just dedicated to their hobby and passionate about producing new mutations and the only realistic way of doing that was to produce a large number to allow for a greater chance of the mutation appearing. After all you could also say someone with a collection of just one pair of 30 - 40 species would also be commercial when in fact they are just passionate about keeping multiple species (much like a stamp collector collects 10'000s of stamps..when the fact is a stamp is a stamp as much as a snake is a snake :Lil: )
Also think of how many Koi are produced by hobbyists just to find that ONE special fish . |
Indeed, 'cos some combos have a 1/64 chance of hitting the odds don't they ?
