No, I don't believe I did say that!

Once a pair is bred, it's an act of breeding, even if you get nothing on the ground, so technically that still makes you a breeder.

We're splitting hairs with the individual in question, since there's nothing produced yet, nor is there a union as far as I'm aware.

One can be a future breeder and there's no test, or formal body to stop ANYONE from practicing this craft!

I do point out things that I find disturbing

We're not here to bash people, we are here to discuss issues that can improve the breed and discuss issues that can be detrimental to the breed.
 
 
Just remember... That is the very same things that other people here are doing as well.

Bumping this thread up because it's a good one.

Ignore the silly nonsense of the last few posts and re-read the thread from page 1.

Bumping this thread up because there is a lot of good information (Dr Bell).

Jann (or Moderators)  if you're reading, please put this in a Health Forum to save.

Ignore the silly nonsense/photos of the last few posts and re-read the thread from page 1.

BTW, these stupid photos take away from the seriousness of the discussion so if one of the moderators or original poster(s) kindly remove them it would be a good idea.  Thanks!
