Post pics of your anery red sideds?

You completely miss the point. "Hashing it out" as you call it is thought provoking and generates new ideas and points of view. That is never a bad thing. What you suggest is that we all stop discussing it and remain the dark ages.

It's been brought up before that no research has been done as to that *actual* nature of the pigmentation in anery, axanthic, melanistic, ect. garters. The exact mechanism of how these traits are expressed isn't known. I know a good bit about genetics, but not so much about garter breeding and traits, so I've been staying out of the discussion but it's been very interesting to read this thread...
It seems to me though that until actual research is done into what genes cause these traits and the mechanisms of expression involved (ie; do anerys have a faulty production mechanism for red pigment, or do they produce an enzyme which blocks an otherwise functional red production mechanism, or any other hundreds of things that could happen to get this trait and which could effect how it acts when passed to future generations) that all people are arguing is semantics, and that doesn't get anyone anywhere. Until someone decides to drag a bunch of garters into a lab and test them, it's really up to a breeder what they call a particular morph...

I am going to post a wanted Ad on KS for Black Bean Phantom Gasses.

DO IT! I'd love to see any replies to that

Just to mess with everyone's head, I am going to prove out a new line of flame and name it the Icicle. Then, I'm going to prove out a new line of melanistic and call it the black albino. Then i am going to prove out a new strain of t negative albino and call it chocolate! None of you can stop me!!! Muahahaha!


Now to go digging in my yard and catch me a chocolate icicle het for black albino!

[RedSidedSPR]

Lol, I'm serious, DO IT!!

[kibakiba]

Do it Shannon. Everyone will love the new icicle het for black albinos.

[aSnakeLovinBabe]

A chocolate icicle het for black albino would look like one of tom's albino flames!! because of this thread, I have just named my male albino flame Icicle. And his Schuett sister shall be named Chocolate.

.....And that melanistic will be called Black Bean.

Richard's reply: And there goes Scott. I guess he's dropped out and fell back on what he knows- PR, Lip service, and marketing. Nothing personal, I know you're too busy for long discussions. Just observing.

Richard, Are you sure your formal name isn't Dickie minus the ie cuz it sure fits your personality better I guess you didn't know that that comment was a joke...everyone else got it but you...I'm decent at PR, Poor Richard first thing that comes to mind, lip service (read my lips, kiss my arse !), and marketing (I heard about your face book photo and how disturbing it was and decided to post it here for everyone to see). I would imagine there are probably 100,000,000 or more people on facebook, and of those how many are holding guns to their heads ?? Nothing personal.

Shannon,

How about anerys = hotfudge and albinos = vanilla and combine them and make hot fudge sundaes he he

... And here I thought all the delicious sounding morphs like caramels and lemon blasts had already been taken by the ball pythons.

Next person here to hurl an insult gets to cool off for a while. Same if you return an insult.
