I think most people prefer captive bred and ideally multi generation captive bred, they almost invariably are better adjusted in captivity and less likely to suffer from parasite issues. Having said that I would own good quality WC animals.
I think Simon is probably totally justified in making those comments, regardless of whether he personally has bred WC WA animals he no doubt knows numerous keepers that own these animals and would be well aware of any potential issues associated with them.
Not surprisingly he no longer posts on here which is a shame as it would be interesting to hear his thoughts on the subject.
