Let us just say for the sake of argument that such a thing could be done. It could be one of the best things that ever happened in our hobby. It might help to end our obsession with odd colored snakes.



I ask you, what is wrong with what nature has cooked up for us? Nature and evolution has produced for us five major subspecies of Elaphe obsoleta, and three other color patterns of that snake that have lost their subspecies status. Then add to that the natural color morphs of each of the subspecies, and you need to have a lot of snakes to have just one of each of these morphs.



A natural colored Gray Rat Snake, now this is a handsome young snake!
