Dart Den

Nope.

I found out why I am more prone to stick up for the hybridizers. Turns out I'm in the 82nd percentile of amount of Neanderthal DNA with a whopping 2.9% Neanderthal makeup. I'm an intraspecific hybrid. Can't wait to see if/how much Denisovan or Florenensis DNA I have in me.

That's because you are brainwashed by Ed too. He pulls things out of context to prove what he wants to prove which mostly has nothing to do with what your point is . He also misinterprets things because he is biased and arguing from an ego standpoint. He takes that into the fight when he researches....

NO ONE IS DOING ANYTHING TO YOU WHEN THEY HYBRIDIZE. RAPE IS FORCED ON SOMEONE, NO ONE IS FORCING YOU TO BUY DART FROGS!!! You are wilfully participating in an act, owning frogs, no one is forcing you as in rape. And now I have Ed trying to sidetrack the whole argument because he thinks that dusting...

No, not at all, 75% of the boards I'm on have no time out on editing. DB and this one are the only ones that have a time out on editing.

So the moral to this story? Register your frogs and you'll never have to worry about being raped.

Phil your edit system sucks!!!! "The Hobby" has never cared about hybrid frogs because no one registers their frogs. They say that they don't want them but don't have anything in place other than bitching to do anything about it. So if you step back and look at it, THAT is the hobby's stan...

This "it's going to ruin the hobby for us" holds no water. Show me, in a hobby where they want locale specific genetics, that hybrids have run out the pure breds? Not 1. I showed that panther chameleons have both hybrid and pure bred. So do leachies. THERE IS NO RISK IN BREEDING OUT ALL TH...

I hate when sites don't allow edits. GRRR! Just think, if more people were of the culture of wanting a pet that's NOT found in nature instead of wanting something that's just like it's found in nature(which isn't technically a "pet") we'd have no worries about smuggling, or at least people...

Dude, just because you write more doesn't make it true. You've taken most everything out of context, forgot that women can be lesbians(they can't be because men might not have people to have sex with?) and can not see how flawed your arguments are. First, hybrids are natural, that argument is gone. ...

dwarf french guiana cobalts are a naturally occurring morph and so are surinam cobalts and both have been crossed in the hobby. I've had more than 1 person come up to me saying one frog was much bigger than the other with their pair and have figured out with them that they bought 2 different "c...

There are already unknown hybrids in the hobby. Dwarf, surinam, brazilian yellow heads are all crosses I heard people making because they didn't know the difference and thought all were just cobalts. Standard leucs are an amalgamation from different imports. Bicolors. Auratus. A lot of the old lines...

Those are grain mites not spider mites.

As long as the hobby realizes it doesn't need wild caught genetics for glass boxes it does.

All the allelles from a population are not needed in their new glass homes. Selecting the "best" suited for breeding in their new environment is the best we can do. Environments differ all over the country from pressure, humidity, heat and viv style choices. By breeding "the best"...

I apologize. It just gets annoying when someone tries to derail a thread by focusing on an insignificant part of my post and taking it out of context. This thread is about registering and ways to breed frogs, not abuot the waschers. Again, sorry.

And no, we didn't have THIS conversation before. This conversation you took my words out of context and tried to have me saying something i didn't. And I still haven't heard a real reason that they can't breed their frogs the way they wish. If you can inbreed them then why can't they outbreed them? ...

Why would I want to do that?

You missed it because you read it right and in context, so it didn't stick out like John wanted it to.

Just more News sensationalism tricks.

Take it out of context? I was only talking about breeding frogs and creating hybrids, not all that other stuff. Notice NONE of that was mentioned in my post and I was simply replying to Phil's comment about not registering frogs being the hobby's fault. Nice try though.
