Not sure about anyone else but this guy sure has been doing a lot of thinking lately. Thinking about why I keep rays. Thinking about how a ray keeper decides it's time to quit or bail from the hobby. Thoughts of how the hell did I push through loosing so much money and so many rays over the years.
Here we are - 11+ YEARS later. The ray that started it all for me. The first ray of mine that was really special to me. Why? The first one born in my care that survived.
There's a saying - you can't win them all. Well, guess what?!??!! Can't loose them all either.
Very proud to say this lil girl isn't so little anymore. She's still with me today over a decade later. Been through 3 moves. Been such a special ray to me that I've never really pushed any males real hard to breed her, never really kept with any proven males. She's been my good luck charm. The one that pics me up every time I loose one. The one that makes me feel like I can't be as bad at keeping rays as I sometimes feel like I am.
VERY anxious to see what the future holds for this gal. IS she currently holding? Could she be holding a cross of 2 species we've never seen before!???!!! Wouldn't that be ironic?
