well looks like its time to take some Excedrine. If you ask me, its a battle of who has the biggest ego. Which is why I never plan on buying any leopards that are Tempers or het for temper.

I am working on the schwarze Bohrung Sonne as we speak, but may name it SOUNDGARDEN :main_laugh:

Just trying to bring a smile to a few faces:main_yes:

 

[Golden Gate Geckos]

OK... I am re-introducing my two NEW MORPHS!!!

 

[SteveB]

Well, since Mr. Tremper originated BOTH the RAPTOR and the Diablo Blanco (and neither "already existed"), both fairness and common industry practice dictate that they and their derivatives are his to name, right?

It would be great if the "movers and the shakers" in this hobby/industry could get together and standardize nomenclature. I won't be holding my breath waiting for it to happen, but I'd support it.

Originated the morph or originated the name for the morph? The answer is up for debate depending on which of the many morphs that have been given names that diverge from "industry standard" nomenclature that we are talking about...

 

[Golden Gate Geckos]

Who originated the Blizzard morph in the DB?

OK... I am re-introducing my two NEW MOPHS!!!

Those are really cool Marcia:main_thumbsup: I want 1.1 of each please

I don't see it as an ego battle at all. It's just a discussion, and as long as we keep it friendly and respectful then I don't see a problem.
Now I am going to go have a big frozen margarita. :main_thumbsup:
Have fun and play nice while I am gone please.

Prehistoric Pets was the one that worked on the blizzard first

 

[SaSobek]

kelli i could go for one too

ohh wait it is Friday night i will be drinking hahahahh i will catch up on this in the AM

Exactly! That's why I tried to make a point that nobody should 'own' a combination morph unless they originated every aspect of it's genetic components.

 

[Ccrashca069]

Have Fun Kelli and save one for me

 

[Golden Gate Geckos]

I know what morph Kelli's margarita is gonna be! GREEN!!!

 

[paulnj]

I will name mine Cryogenian blizzard to pay homage to prehistoric pets :main_evilgrin:

 

[Ipsl]

this is an interesting read though. How about Boozeriferius Drincanis The liquid Skined Gecko Newt. (WoW wher'd that come frome)

:main_laugh: I don't know where you came up with that but it sounds cool:main_thumbsup: I will take whatever it is your having lol

 

[yellermelon]

I also say its eclipse. The term RAPTOR is used so loosley now by EVERYONE. I say its a albino eclipse and yes they do show alot of "tremper line orange". To bad that doesnt show up in the DB's..so what does, the albinism, blizzardism, and the eclipseism lol. I dunno I enjoy reading this thread though..I quit drinking in Jan. Bring me a big virgin margarita.

Exactly! That's why I tried to make a point that nobody should 'own' a combination morph unless they originated every aspect of it's genetic components.

In that case, my question is just who gets to name the combo morph, if not the one who originally breeds it?

For example-Kevin Mccurley of NERD first produce the spider pastel Ball Python. He named it the Bumblebee-which was immediately and to this day accepted by the hobby as a whole.

In addition-Prehistoric Pets bred the "Blazing Blizzard", which was named because they thought it would keep the red eyes for life. Even though that proved not to be the case, the name stuck.

Just wondering:main_huh:

Brad, you are reading more into this thread than I think you need to. IMO, there are too many breeders looking to get their names (and the names of 'new' morphs) on the map, and it's just getting out of hand. I can hardly keep up with all the names of these combination morphs myself, so I can imagine how crazy it is for newer members to keep track of. There seems to be a certain bunch of breeders that are calling existing morphs something else that makes them their own 'special' geckos.

Case in point, Hybino, Sunglow, Hyglow. There used to be only one patternless morph, and now we have to call them 'Murphy patternless' because the APTOR and RAPTOR have the term 'patternless' in it, and they are completely different morphs! The "R" in RAPTOR means 'ruby-eyed', when it is simply an albino version of an eclipse. I could go on and on...

I produce some awesome patternless (Murphy, that is) with carrot-tails. They are not a cross, they are line-bred. But I chose to call them Patternless CT's instead of "the Marcia Morph" or a "Patty-Glow" because it best describes the morph by the existing nomenclature, and I am not as competitive or egotistical as some of the other guys.

I know that's easy for me to say since I will never be one of those breeders that puts a gecko morph on the map, and I am totally fine with that. I think it's more important to be honest, have good ethics, and produce healthy robust geckos that eat well and grow when they go out to their new homes.

Marcia because of who you are and the beautiful geckos you produce is why we love you and buy your geckos And because of your awesome good ethics people will continue to buy your geckos. Contra to what a select few think, its not all about being the first to produce something new. Its about producing geckos that are healthy that you are proud of producing and selling. With all that said, May God Bless you Marcia
