Introducing Caatanga X Ornata

I am breeding, and I work with species far more valuable to conservation efforts than ridiculous hybrids.

Tony what you have just said is absolutely true and that is also why you should be above the name calling in this argument.

Well this is the horned frog section. You already called our whole community a joke and bashed herpetologist Philippe Vosjoli who knows more about Reptiles and Amphibians than you will ever wish to know. So why dont you get the fukk out already.

I believe Philippe is a herpetoculturist not a herpetologist, Though this I'm not fully sure of.

Thank you Kevin....any attempt to distract the children is welcome.

What a pitty to see it is the same thing around the globe,
why do you keep frogs?

What i noticed about people keeping the bigger frogs like horned frogs,
a lot of them tend to have the same problems a lot of snake guys have.
As if it matters wether you're frog can eat his.
You're frog isn't top of the food chain as well, but why bother?

Don't mind if it is a tree frog, toad or dart frog.
You should keep you're frogs because you love them.
Not because of the economics or if it can eat someone elses pet.

If you really want a hybrid, be my guest, hopefully there are enough people with the same respect for nature as we with those tiny ridiculous poison darts have.
While we're at it, try give him a nibble of one of those, see how well that goes.

I think people like you, immediately bashing into someone and try to make a fool out of them, create the way tony generalize those horned frog keepers.

This post has gotten massively out of hand. It is no longer contributing anything in the way of knowledge.

I have said it before, and I will say it again, my favorite thing about John Clare's websites is that they are places where knowledge sharing and occasionally debate are welcome in a friendly atmosphere.

I'll reserve my opinions on the topics being discussed as quite enough has been said already. We should let bygones be bygones and agree to part ways on this thread.

Truthfully, there is no point in continuing the current conversation because it is neither accomplishing nor revealing anything.


Best,

Earlier today, I asked you all to be civil, and rather politely I might add. Then the inappropriate language came out and a few people violated our terms of service. This has forced me to close the thread, delete many messages, and hand out some infractions. If you can't have a constructive conversation (or constructive debate), then please don't post here. It's rather saddening when obviously intelligent and experienced people can't talk about a topic without degenerating into mud slinging and name calling. You are all better than that.
