First red-neck was an interesting name, I live in Upper St. Clair, PA as far from red-neck as you get.
And my cousin may be foolish at times but he knows what he is talking about.

Read again the entire thread then provide your opinion. And in regards to knowledge I do not know much about yourself, although I would highly recomend to watch what you say.
I am 16 and I feel I have a pretty decent handle on things for a high school junior.

Also, I would do some research if I were you and discover what genetics is and how generations and "Designer Morphs" work. I do not know about you, however I am not here for money I am only explaining facts.

I breed morphs only because they are popular and will finance projects with rare and endangered animals. Which do not have a value of money only in science, and through captive propogation to improve our knowledge.
Puerto Rican Boas, and Boa Constrictor sabogae to name a few. Maybe you have heard of these, which are being bred by research institutions only.

Now to genetics, my biology teacher and the others in our 7 time Blue Ribbon School of Excelence, believe me to have one of the strongest hold on genetics, of any person there (includeing our doctorate teachers).

I may miss some things now and then, and I admit I have a lot to learn, but doesn't everyone.

As a final note, most people hybridize animals for enjoyment, money, or morphs. However, I do my work for one reason, as a study of the effects on the natural behavior of the animals involved and to understand taxonomy, as well as extreme natural selection to breed for the strongest genetics possible.

Thank you.
