Man, how many times does Fauna have to warn you? My eyeballs are burning from all the bad and/or offensive language I've seen you use.

I am sorry, but did anyone else see that he said he cross bred a leo with a fat tail???? Hahahahaha.....WOW....... You are the only one in the world to do that...... Let me in on your secret...... PLEASE.....

 

[smokedopeandrap]

Like i said before i got a female fat tail from someone that was keeping it with a male leo and the fat tail laid eggs and i hatched them.I called Prehistoric Pets in Chino and they said that it was possible.Anyways i sold the geckos for $85ea.If you all dont want to hear me then stop posting comments about me.The issue between Marcia and i is resolved.Ill try to keep it clean from now on. ? DID YOU GROW UP IN A TOWN SURRONDED BY EIGHTBALLS AND THUGS AND KILLERS LIVIN IN A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE DONT CARE ABOUT FEELINGS DONT KNOW IF YOURE GONNA LIVE OR DIE KEEP A 45 ON YOUR SIDE INCASE YOU GOTTA SEND SOMEBODY BYE BYE PARANOID KNOWING THAT THE DAYS GONNA COME BUT ILL BE DAMED IF MR.MITCH GONNA RUN. Keepin it clean for ya.Antone want a demo cd SICCMADEFAMILY. Anyways maybe the guy i bought the fattail from was playing me for a fool.But i did call pehistoric pets in chino and i told them about it and they said "ya its possible".They also said that "if you keep a fattail and leo together they might mate"So if not i was lied to as i know i am no expert.2 of my leo eggs just hatched 1 yesterdy and 1 today.I also just got an email from someone that i sold some geckos to in NY and they are completly satisfied.I also have another package going out on monday .So i guess just because i might smoke bud and speak my mind and some people dont like me dosent mean i cant conduct bussiness and satisfy most of my customers.Marcia was the first 1 that i have had a falling out with.So as long as i dont let that happen again my record is still good.Honestly i keep posting things that come to mind when i read all of your comments.I dont wait and think of what to write i just write,just like in my tracks.If somone seriously wants to hear one or some lyrics let me know.Just dont say it sucks until you can hear it .I try to keep it all real about the world ,my life and my experinces .If no one want to cool.Anyways eveyone stay up stay on game and Happy Herpin

While it's possible for a leo and AFT to mate - as in go through the whole mating ritual, if your AFT had any fertile eggs, they were from a previous breeding with another AFT - the previous owner apparently failed to mention it to you.

Any eggs resulting from a leo\aft mating will be infertile.

Why?

Because they're two different species. "Species" is, loosely, a group of similar beings that can successfully interbreed - and do so naturally in the wild.

I add that last tidbit because yes - there have been other animals that resulted from an interspecies breeding. For example, the mule comes from the breeding of a horse to a donkey. However, because the parents are 2 different species, their chromosomes don't quite match up - the mule has an uneven number of chromosomes, making it impossible for it to breed.

They've also bred together lions and tigers - the liger. There is some question as to the result's fertility. I'm not as certain on that.. I do know, however, that that crossbreeding was ONLY made possible by the intervention of man. Number 1, they wouldn't have mated in the wild... NUmber 2, Man had to a bit of messing with the genes to get an actual baby.

HOWEVER, From everything that I have read & studied, it is genetically impossible for the breeding of a leo to an AFT to result in any fertile eggs. Their chromosomal make-up simply does not match up enough or correctly. It would take a scientist in a lab with tons of technology to achieve that one. That's like crossing a human with our closest genetic relative - the chimpanzee. If you wanted any results out of that mix, it'll only come from a lab. Not naturally. Our genetic make-up simply does not match up enough.

So your AFT that bred to your leo & then had gravid eggs.. She had to have been introduced to a male AFT before that - otherwise, those eggs would've been infertile.

I am REALLY getting mad.

Yes, I posted a few pages back that Mitch claims to have successfully crossed a Leopard Gecko with an African Fat Tail. He now says he sold them to someone in NY, which possibly means he falsely represented the animals along with his other 'stand-up' business ethics.

But now, I am at the end of my rope with you, Mitch. I posted negative feedback on your profile in regard to you as a seller, and you send me yet another one of your pathetic emails... then post a negative feedback on me in retaliation! I have worked too hard for too many years to earn the reputation as a competent breeder and ethical business person for someone like you to come along and smear it.

Mitch, I have had it with you, this thread, your foul mouth, and all of your crap. I think I have been a pretty good sport through all of this, and you deserved to get the negative feedback! I did NOT give you negative feedback because of what you said on this forum, I did it because of what I had to go through with this transaction!

1- I sent you the money for the geckos
2- you did not contact me when you received it like you said you would
3- you did not ship the geckos when you said you would
4- you took the money I sent and used it to party with your cousin
5- you did not contact me the following Friday like you said you would
6- I had to post an inquiry on the BOI to help me get my money back after nearly 3 weeks

Now, why in the world would I recommend that anyone do business with you? In your negative feedback on me, you are blaming having your reptiles stolen as the reason for all of this mess. Well, if you had sent the geckos when you were supposed to (before you took my money and went to party with your cousin), then the geckos I purchased would not have been allegedly stolen! YOU are the person responsible for all of this, NOT me... or anyone else.

Drop it, Mitch. Just go crawl back in to the hole you have dug for yourself and leave this alone.

 

[smokedopeandrap]

No i didnt spend youre money for partying.As for the events that occured here they are.

1-You sent me a message saying i had cashed the check the day before,but i told you i had just cashed it that day and you said youre right my mistake.
2-I informed you i was going to my cousins graduation.I asked if you wanted to wait for the geckos or i can give you a refund,you said i still want the geckos.
3-After the graduation i had a little to much to drink and decided to drive home that night,i was pulled over and got a dui .
4-When i got out of jail i found my room had been ramsacked and my stuff stolen.I checked my email and read the messages you had been leaving me.I then told you what had happend,which you didnt believe.
5-You said you wanted youre money by the 06-21-04 and you got it on that exact day.I had to get my ride from impound and i collected some funds that some heads owed me.
6-I wrote a letter of apology and sent the money and you got it by youre deadline.

So i took all the proper steps towards doing what had to be done in reguards to the facts.So where does the 3 weeks come in 08th-21st i count 13 days.Also you got youre money by the day you wanted it by so what else is there?You were aware that i was going to San Diego and would be gone for a few days.So reguardless of the fact that i got a dui my stuff had been stolen so either way i would have had to give you the the refund the only difference is it would have been a few days sooner.So you were ok with me waiting to ship until i got back and unfortunatly i got jacked.So i did what i had to and took the proper steps to make things right.

 

[Golden Gate Geckos]

arrgghhh!!!!!

I wish i would have sent the leos the same day i got the check,but instead i made the choice to go out and party and get loaded and now i can say i am paying for it bigtime.

Mitch, this is a direct quote from one of your emails to me. Shall I post them all? As far as the timeline... you posted your ad on Reptimart on 6/1/04, I contacted you on 6/2, sent you the money on 6/3, and got my refund on 6/21. That's nearly 3 weeks. I am not going to argue with you anymore because it is fruitless. You are like an annoying, disease-carrying insect continually buzzing around my head that keeps coming back after being swatted away. It's over. It's done. GO AWAY!!!

 

[smokedopeandrap]

I did choose to go to the "GRADUATION" and after "PARTY" and i am paying for it.But you knew i was going to the grad. and you wanted to wait until i got back to get the geckos when i offered you the money right then.So you knew i was leaving for a couple days but neither of us knew i was going to get robbed.So i was counting the days from when i actully got and cashed the check .Not from when i posted my ad.The time starts when i get the check not when i posted and ad.Like you said we could argue forever we both have a different point of view.Just answer me 1 question.HONESTLY.What would you have done if someone ordered a gecko and lets just say somthing came up(someone past away or somthing) and you had to leave right away.You told the person that ordered the gecko that you would send them their money back if they wanted or you would send the geckos as soon as you got back a couple days later.They say i will wait and just ship them when you get back.When you return home(or to your shop)your geckos have been ripped off.What would you do other than say sorry and send them back their money?Answer honestly if you were in the situation dont try to turn it around or anything just tell me what you would do?

Lets' see I went to a junior high school in San Diego that if you walked into the wrong bathroom you got at least the crap kicked out of you and the worst a chain up side your head or a knife hole in your side. I learned in 7th grade what the west coast crips hand sign looks like and the south side bloods hand sign looks like too - then again there was the "shell town" latino gangs to deal with too. I learned that too say what is "c" like to a blood meant an butt kicking at the minimum. Wearing red in the crips side of school or wear blue in the bloods side of school guaranteed retribution. I learned quickly how to survive in this situation. Your west covina ganster garbage is nothing new. You either learn to rise above or muddle your way through.

I had hopes for you, but you are soooo lost.

Good luck.
