This has been bugging me for a while, so I thought I would throw the question out into the public to see what you all think about it.
Several years ago, I ran low on snow corns and anerythristics, so I bought a few from some other breeders so I could fill my orders. I also had my eyes peeled for Blood Reds as well, but had no luck finding them.
For some reason I felt guilty about this. I guess I felt like people were buying snakes from ME, and that implied they wanted animals that I had personally produced myself. But I know for a fact that a lot (if not most) of the other breeders do this and apparently their sales are strong enough that this doesn't bother the buyers at all.
So let me ask you all: Do you have a problem buying animals from a breeder that the breeder did not actually produce themselves?
Heck, let me set up a poll for this.............
