    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Any info on Ankaramy Incorporated?

Sorry I didn't reply sooner....

Hey,

Sorry I didn't respond sooner... I have been very busy with the chams. If any of you thought that I have been here the whole time, I wasn't. Anyway, I am not going to deny it. It is true, but you did exaggerate it a little Chris. I said that I have 400 eggs incubating, and thats it. I never said anything regarding about my breeder chams, or that I have 100. I did apologize for it to everyone in the chat room. It was a foolish thing to do. AT first I was only kidding, but eventually, I did try to make people believe that I really had 400 eggs incubating. It was childish, and really quite pathetic. I apologize to everyone reading this thread. I sincerely hope that I didn't lose anymore friends over it. In some ways, it was about "fitting-in". I was definetly not fitting in when I confessed. I was fitting in when I supposedly had so much stuff. I actually did feel left out, when Chris TSE was always talking about his all his stuff. How he has a whole wing of a building for quarentine, and another for his feeders ect ect ect. There were alot of other people in the chat the same way. So, I didn't think it was that big of a deal. But it was. Once again, I apologize.

I'll tell you this Adam, there are people out there breeding that have 100% of my respect and they could be breeding out of a closet for all I care. Its the person, its the quality, and its the relationship........

Keep these things in mind, it takes a big person to admit fault. Good show. Just keep your act straight......

Chris and Sam...points made. This thread is about Mantis, lets keep it that way.

Dennis, Chris and I are working out our differences in PM's. Sorry to have taken the thread off topic.
 
I agree, takes some guts to stand up and admit to messing up in a big way - ESPECIALLY in a public forum that peers, critics and competition dwell. You scored points by doing that Adam. I do think you were a bit pinned against the wall on this one with now escape hatch, so you aren't out of the woods yet. But like Chris said, keep on the straight and norrow, don't fall for the big talk unless you can back up what you are saying and you should be ok provided there aren't too many of these instances in your future. Best way to talk big man is to let the animals you bred, hatched and rasied do it for you - easiest way I can think of not to stick your foot in your mouth. Best of luck and look forward to those updated pics when those babies are older.

And now my opinion of the kid starts reverting back to being a good one. Definitely takes a lot to admit being wrong and it is an admirable trait.

Pink, pink, pink...

Hey everybody,

Hows it going??? Here is a pic that I took tonight, while they were sleeping...

Looks pretty pure to me, let me know what you guys think. :):):)

Adam,
I would continue to work on the diet modifications that we communicated about, and not put up any more pictures until you get some meat on those bones. Looks pretty Ankaramy to me, but not robust, and pictures of thin animals will raise doubts about your husbandry practices.
 
Looking like it indeed. If he keeps that pink and continues to develop the blue ridge on the crown and the dorsal spine you might have something pure there.
Like we all said to begin with, time will tell.
Let them grow and feed them better and youwill not have to keep posting baby pics for approval for long. With good nutrition, lighting and water these babies should be big quick and then, with a sub-adult in your hands, you can not only tell for sure that they are pure but be able to take another pic of you and all the pinks crawling on top of you.
Maybe you can title that one the "Pink Panthers and Inspector Closeau".

Good luck,
Ivan
 
I almost forgot....

Hey everyone,

I forgot that I had this...

I contacted Paul Miles at Bebeblu chameleons a few weeks ago and he agreed to sign this "proof of purity" reciept about the ankaramies that he sold to me (the parents). I doubt that this will convince everybody that the offspring are pure, but I just thought it would be best if I posted it.

Let me know what you guys think. Ttyl.

Maybe this will help you.

I will buy from just about anyone.
Whether they be breeding on a whole wing of a 100,000 sqaure foot warehouse. Or they be breeding out of their basement or closet.

But i will NEVER NEVER buy from anyone who claims to be incorporated, when they are not. Even if they tell me it is not real incorporation....but just some dumb name. I will still NEVER buy from them. To me it suggest an attempt at impropriety.

Not only that. We have seen people post about certain "bad guys" right here on the BOI. And several of those "bad guys" claimed to be Incorporated, or an LLC or a CO-OP. One or two of them claim to have degrees in herpetology. I even know of one of them whose spelling is much worse than mine......... and he claims to have a phd. I only claim to have five years of college with two years of credit and three years of partying.

Anyway to make a long story short.
I do try to stay away from the guy with stories. SPECIALLY THE UNTRUE KIND

Just a little advise.
Because I see on kingsnake that you are still incorporated
 
Now that's a PINK cham. LOL I like the looks of that, though I cannot say if it is pure. Just don't know that much about them.

Very nice critter though. :D thanks for sharing.

I just took a pretty nice pic of one of the Ankaramies. They are all doing great.

Just wanted some other opinions. Do they look pure to the rest of you guys?

I'm confused.... Do you not think they're pure? To me, it's pretty clear, but in the back of my mind, I feel like you posted this here basically to put it in anyone's face who doubted you... I'm not going to read back through this thread, but did anyone ever say they weren't pure? All I remember saying was "not yet," and also that this is in the wrong forum.... I'm not sure how we got 90-something posts deep about it, but it's still the wrong forum.
 
Adam,
Nice animals Adam, which is the same thing I've said the last two times you put the pictures in my Inbox, and also in every post I have in this thread that mentions them. Might I recommend, just IMHO, that you let a thread in which you were shown to be a bit "truth impaired" with your experience, beginning with Post #60 or so, fade away. Needless to say, it was also politely pointed out earlier in the thread that you were claiming to be "Incorporated" when you were not. Have you fixed that?
As Tyler said Adam, there are better places for the pictures, which makes about a half-dozen times it has been pointed out in this thread. Rather than see the pictures here, it would be better to see your business registration with the State of New York, or let us know how that issue has been resolved, since this thread began as a question about your business standing, you admited in this thread that you weren't incorporated, and never came back to say it had been fixed.
 
Should learn to read My email links. I did not even realize this was in the BOI.
You both are right, not an appropriate place for pics.

Rick
