I know... this is always a debate. You rescue and you breed??

It started with a couple of leopard geckos. Now I have a lot :-) I dont see masses of leopard geckos pouring into rescues... So I am OK with this. What happens to them... Well, for now, I am keeping all the offspring. I give some of them to friends or fellow rescuers who want a baby.

My female jacksons had babies all on her own, with no help from me. These are live-born, so it was not as easy as just freezing the eggs. These are all being given to friends as well.

Do I breed rescued animals? No. I only breed my own personal pets for my own personal enjoyment.

I am not sure what to think of the tone of your post... But I think I know where you were going with it.

: OK, Mark.... You're working with a "rescue"/rehabber - CoRR if I remember correctly. You are also participating in your own "breeding projects" - intentionally? Do I want to ask what happens to resultant offspring?
