craftsman, I merely did not understand what you were trying to say in the respect of one minute you said that IYO its a pity that people "bastardise" our aussie GTP's... Now I understood that to be meaning x breeding or whatever...
Yet the next time your are saying that you dont have a problem with people doing it...
This is merely why i did not comment but instead put ???
I have enough experience. But your animals are worth double of what any other green is worth, that why you should be able to show people their collection data and collection permits. They were never around about 5 years ago.In regards to the reduced vertebral lines, I have heard many stories. And stories they all are indeed. The vertebral line is a genetic trait of this locality. It has nothing to do with the amount of UV light they get, or that their diet is not the same or any of the other rubbish that people get told. Meraukes have the solid vertebral stripe as soon as they complete the ontogenic change. It should thus happen with pure aussie greens as well.
If I am wrong then please give me the links to where the data is pertaining to their vertebral striping or any concrete scientific evidence. I am never too old to learn new things. I can also say sorry if I was wrong.
Regards
New guinea of course, where all aussie greens originate from.
Congratulations on your GTP's Matt. awesome stuff
