RE: Hatchling Carpet Colours

Yes Bob, i definately agree with you. As i diamond breeder i have had a lot of people asking to see photos of hatchlings and then backing out when they're not happy with their appearance. I once had a guy come to my place to buy baby diamonds. Firstly he said he would get to my place at 5pm but arrived at 8pm, and secondly he admitted that he had never seen a hatchling diamond before and had no idea what they looked like. But when i showed him the hatchlings he said to me " Err, they're ugly. Are you sure they're diamonds?". It took me a long time to convinced him that they were pure diamonds but he insisted on seeing my adults. Not just the parents of these babies, but all my adult diamonds. Finally he purchased a few hatchlings but was convinced they were hybrids and not pure diamonds. He also wanted a discount because of the distance he had to travel to get them. He didnt get it.

Also i think most of those APS regulars with 1000 posts have accumulated those posts through Chit Chat, and nothing else.
