I do believe freedom of speech comes in here!! If the OP is going to put a thread up and admit to inbreeding i don't think anything else can be expected!!
Breeders often practice inbreeding to "fix" desirable charactheristics within a population..
But then is it also fair to put a mother through having pups born with tumours, internal problems!! Is it fair on the pups!!

You breed animals do you not? A little startling then that you do not know the difference between inbreeding and line breeding


Sure I don't need to repeat this for anybody elses benefit, but for you I will explain once more that Stella was to be allowed one litter by her father ("line" breeding) for the purposes of learning what colours my skunks carry. However this is no business of yours or anybody elses because I did not intend to sell the kits.

I am the founder of CENSR, the Central Exotic & Non Native Species Registry. If you were familiar with CENSR and how hard I work to maintain genetic diversity you would realise how ludicrous your silly comments really are.

If you are already well aware that I breed responsibly and just felt like making me defend myself.. well done, give yourself a pat on the back

Pouchie

you gave us a warning of something bad that has happened to you

all i can do is take my hat off to you for that


NOT many people would do what pouchie did for the sake of others in the future


FOR GOD SAKE THIS WAS a RIP thread for poor stella

Thanks Em.

My fault for rising to it but I still miss Stella a lot and its a bit emotive but I agree. I suggested earlier in the thread if people want to discuss breeding perhaps it could go in another thread.

This one should probably be locked now it was only meant to be a warning post and everyone must have seen it now.
