why not ...this is a hobby, we keep these in tanks not are back yards. their is no credible evidence that says their will be any impact on wild life.we are not breeding snakes to help the endagered cornsnake or cali-king. THESE ARE PETS! they grow faster ,take food more readiy and can have some radically differant patterns and colors, all of this makes for a better PET. yes it does take a few generations sometimes to get good looking hybrids, but it takes several generations to get some "normal" morphs as well. by taking different species you can better the snake that is produced. i dont see the python people having this discussion? if you go to europe they love hybrids over their! and guess what almost all fads that hit the us start in europe and asia, so it will get much worse for those who dont agree. and for those who breed for money on here, many hybrids bring higher price tags than pure breeds as well.

i would just like to see one valid reason not to do it, it doesnt hurt anyone and the snakes are healthier and i have not heard of one NOT BEING FERTILE yet. so genetically if they are that close than why not?
