: Fred,

: I appreciate the fact that you personally are not a big hybrid fan, nor am I for that matter, but when my question to you was, "Is it feesable?", that was my main question. I thought I could consider you an "authority" on indigo's and was more of an inquisitive question to you and not whethere I should take them in on trade. I'm sorry you were too sick just to give me a yes or no. Yes, I did ponder the idea of taking them on trade, just to see them, since the animal I'm trading them for isn't that expensive. Secondly, not that I should explain myself, but I would never breed them or attempt to sell them as a "pure" anything as anyone that truly knows me would expect. I only wish you would have had the courtesy to tell me what your thoughts were on this issue more on a professional level via an email back and not here on this forum.

: Barry

Barry, I will be straight and to the point. I DID NOT STATE YOUR NAME HERE. You decided to do that. I think the idea is asinine, and I told you as much. As far as being an AUTHORITY on INDIGOS, yes I have worked with them a number of years, but that has nothing to do with the HYBRID dilema that you posed to me. Let me ask you this, Why would you support the efforts of somebody who is trying to bastardize a snake that is as uncommon as the eastern Indigo is? Even if it were done in trade? And why would you want to have these mutts around your house? Think about YOUR reputation , these animals would not and could not improve it. And all the offspring from them, will they be sold as Indigos or Mex. black kings? And should you sell them, would the folks that buy them from you ber as responsible as you say that you are going to be with them, I doubt it. Bad choice Barry. very bad choice.

Fred
