This is the reason you have flames, super flames, etc. The 'purists' don't want it named and the 'breeders' need a name to help in identification for sale.
While most of us collect and breed KSBs for enjoyment, we also, sell them to help offset the cost of the hobby. You can't keep them all and the same folks against 'naming' the 'reduced patterned' KSBs would be screaming if someone offered them 'normal/wild type' money for it. The bottom line is, few will pay 100's more for a KSB advertised 'reduced patterned KSB' but would pay it for a 'Dodoma KSB'. The two snakes could look identical in every way, what's in a name, a lot of money in a niche market that does not have a lot of higher end options.
Thanks for everyone's input. ----- Mark Huntley Sand Boa Morphs
