In Reply to: Why is it just ruining the "Argentine Pool? ..more posted by amazoa on May 04, 2003 at 06:31:07:

IMO the argentine "pool" is a much more important animal to be worried about. Who knows what localities were mixed up into salmonhypocalafragalisticexpialodocious boas. I doubt that a little agentine blood is going to mess them up any more than they already are. Just my 2 cents at STAKE :)


:As a salmon hypo breeder I'm not happy about the salmon hypos being mixed up with the Argentines. So to keep saying as you do that this mix ruins the Argentine gene pool blatantly ignors the effect on the Salmon gene pool. I think people can do as they want and believe me they will do just that. Every coin has a flip side so take into account the effect on both snakes and admit its not just the Argentines "GENE POOL" at steak here.
:Thats my opinion on this --Richard

::Normal Argentines look better and Salmons look MUCH better than "Salmontines". Why ruin the Argentine gene pool for something that doesn't improve on either?
