Chris,

Thanks so much for making this poll!

Honestly, I am kind of surprised by all the sudden interest in Biaks (according to this poll at least). This is contrary to the "market trends" I have seen take shape on this and other classifieds sites recently, where some breeders struggle to sell their beautiful pure Biak offspring even at ridiculously low (near import chondro) prices.

Greta is one of my favorite animals, and I orginally purchased her back in 1998 with the goal of using her to make Biak OC's. She has produced 4 clutches (her first was all slugs) so far, and really, who knows how many she has left in her. For me to give up a whole year of production from her to produce animals that are readily available from other breeders (Rico, Ed Bradley, Bushmaster, and several others) doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. This is especially true when you look at the quality of the OC's she has produced for me in the past... they are awesome.

So while I appreciate everyone's input and enthusiasm, when it all boils down, I am a "designer" gtp fan at heart. I don't see any locality pairings in my future... sorry!
