In Reply to: Re: My largest Female (Gila)! 21-22 inches long!! posted by Jackie Lapradd on January 05, 2002 at 22:29:57:

but the more I look at that photo you posted the more I realize that both of those gilas seem to be suffering from the same "disease" as the last photo you posted. Lackoffloridaitis-a little known disease that gilas in your collection come down with. The only thing that saved the last one from a fate worse than death(Livinginnewyorkitis) was for us to buy it. It has never looked better since the change of scenery. Once again out of the kindness of my heart I would offer to you the only salvation for both of these gilas.........send them south for the winter. As a matter of fact I think you have the only population of gilas that migrate south for the winter. Why neglect them of what they would do naturally (HAHAHAHAHA)
