If we all had the same tastes it would be a dead set boring world .

Just think - when you become the 7th state officially you'll be able to "export" them over here and make a killing.

Wonder why they aren't here then ?
Is it such a secret as to how they came about that no one else can produce the mutation ?

And my question was are they here not do you like them .... :thumbdown:

The problem is that new mutations aren't caused by specific breedings jusdeb, they happen purely by chance.

If I'm not mistaken, they first turned up in a flock of fawns.... Can anyone correct me?
