>>Not sure whether to say thank you or something else guys. I didn't ask Ric to provide the Sanderson family tree at the time of purchase, I did however feel that he was a reputable breeder. I'm sure many will dispute the Vivid reptiles line of River Road Alterna, but I will sell my babies as River Road Alterna from Vivid Reptiles. I also have Black Gap from T. Smith and I can sleep at night for selling them as Black Gap locale. I respect all the hard core Alterna breeders here, that's why I come to this forum. Hope everyone has much success this year with all their snakes.

Well, I DID do the homework on them.

I recently spoke with Gerry Salmon who collected either some or all of the original parent stock which founded this line. He knew of the controversy, and yet he can vouch for Dave Doherty as having bred PURE 9-mile northers. Those were Gerry's words, point blank. And Ric got those snakes from Dave.

I once borrowed a suboc from Ric to breed to mine, and he wanted NONE of the babies, since they would have been "non-locality". I have no reason to not trust any of the three aforementioned in this.

So, take that for what it's worth. Anyone doubting Gerry's words should contact HIM, since that is all I know or was told.

In any case, great looking snakes. Those patternless are to-die-for awesome.
