Baby Apricot Leopard Geckos????

...ok sorry. The thread was kinda over and everyone debated it and decided. I didn't think it was bad......

Thats odd. On their site it says that they have hypo leopard gecko breeders. :main_robin: http://www.jnjreptiles.com/collection.php You would think that they would know the morph if they are breeding it.

We do not normally deal with leo's. We got the ones in the add on a package deal from a breeder and that is what they had they listed as, so that is what we advertised them as. We apologize for any confusion we were just calling them what we bought them as.

As for the hypo leo's they are our 4 year old sons pets, he liked the looks so he got them for that reason. We do not keep up with the leo market so we took the breeders word for what they were.
Hopefully this will clear this up, as we had no ill intentions with them.
Thanks

Thank you for taking the time to respond to this thread.

For everyone else...

I have had it with this petty, adolescent squabbling attacking other breeders and sellers because of things that you don't think adhere to what rules you want everyone to play by. There are no rules pertaining to what a seller can name an animal. I personally saw nothing at all wrong or misleading about the ad in question since no unfounded claims were made about the animals. Cripes, I don't even know the difference between a tangerine and an apricot, but I know they're both orange fruits. What terms a seller uses to market their animals is up to them. Perhaps in the future it would be best to ... oh, I don't know... ASK THE SELLER? I do not want to see any more threads like this one created to draw speculation upon another breeder and/or seller. That is NOT what this website is for. Take it elsewhere if that is your objective.

It doesn't seem to matter how many times I have to quote the TOS to remind everyone that comments regarding an individual's or business' ethics or conduct are not allowed on GF, especially when names are being mentioned. As far as I'm concerned, linking to an ad that displays a seller's identification is no different than simply typing their name in the post/thread itself.

I'm not blaming the original thread starter exclusively, mind you. This thread did not need to take the direction it did, and a number of members here contributed to it crossing the line. Hopefully I will be in a better mood when I get back from the airport, as I intend to start handing out official warnings to certain participants in this thread. I recognize a few names here as already having a few warnings to their membership, and if suspensions are in order, then so be it.

Take note; these types of threads/posts/comments are NOT to continue.
