TOMatoPASTE, most of us are considerate enough to other readers to make what we write legible and understandable.
I agree with you that Python Blue needs to watch what he says! And as a moderator if I can't read what he says, but given his nature, suspect that it might be rude or offensive, then my other option is simply to erase each and every post as he writes!
But, oh, imagine the furore if I did that!

haha fair enough. i will make a compromise and say fullstops and basic punctuation is preferable and considerate but perfect grammar and punctuation isnt vitally necessary (everyone realises what 'dont' means) and in the end its up to him if he doesnt want anyone to understand what hes on about

As for grammer, it has to atleast be readable, some of the text msg style posts take a decent amount of time to work out.

Hey beautiful python!! I have an intergrade a diamond x Coffs Harbour she is nearly 2 meters long now she has never bitten or shown to strike, very placid tolerant girl. She is a little fussy though and will eat only tanish coloured MICE! ANY HINTS OR TIPS FOR THIS? ANY WAY ENJOY!

My I just say that calling them an INTERGRADE devalues the animal. I prefer PORT MAC (CARPET / DIAMOND) after all is that not the locale it originates????? I sincerely feel people need to get the understanding into their heads that a Port Mac should be taken onboard on it's own merits. After all has it not passed the test of time????
In this sense though, I do not believe that Python Blue's animal is a TRUE Port Mac. If it was, how would they know it was 75% Diamond?
Isis: How can you have a Port Mac when you state it is a Diamond x Coffs Harbour? Did you purchase this as an "intergrade" or a "Diamond X Coffs", or Did you breed it??
This is in no way ment to start a heated debate on INTERGRADES. I am just trying to re-credit a beautiful sp. reputation that seems to be tarnished by people placing purposely & planned captive bred Diamond x's into their sp.
Cheers

So unless you caught it in the bush originally you would not know for sure!!! I wish people would get of their high horses about this hole purity issue and appreciate snakes in captivity for what they are worth!!!! They are snakes in captivity! Never to be released back into the wild unless someone is negligent enough to leave their cages unlocked. The hobby will change in the next few years and have started changing already!!!! | LMFAO!!!!
MoreliaHunter,
Did you catch all your stock yourself? if not wouldnt that make the origins of your animals questionable also?..... or did you do some genetic testing?
What genetic testing has seperated the locality types?
I dont blame the people in North America or Europe if they dont care about pure animals like you claim... they dont have much choice with people like you wanting to breed so many hybrids
Just perhaps..... Australias have a intrest in their native fauna, and the many forms it comes in
