they are about 3 min from my house so i was fortunate enough to see them in person.
was told that they were propagated in holding tanks (max and cro separated) but somehow there was a join in the systems and that these hybrids were and accident???
the store is very new and the web site has not been updated since he has opened. (no time i quess, this is the same place i got a 4-5 inch powder brown for $20.18! great place and cool stock)
