Pro Hybrid = Ball X Woma

( just too AWESOME )


BY far the best to date!!!!! Better than Bateater's to me!!!

That Kevin ( Satan ) has lived up to his vernacular name on this one, sooo wicked-evil looking, it's a matter of course that a guy named SATAN Creates the CROSS ( evil grin, irony intended )

Anti Hybrid = Ball X Angolan

( similar phenotypes & Angolan is an endangered species, which should be avoided, oh yeah, the science department cannot use that specimen anyway even before the MAD SCIENTISTS dared play God )

Triple Dog Dare Ya, to try giving me an Ball/Angolan Hybrid....you won't even see it leave your hands!!!!!!!!!! and well, since someone "polluted" the Angolans genetic integrity already, I will try "not" breeding it to a BURM, maybe back to a ball, so I can get the "approval" of the scientific and Herpetologic communities.

COMPLETE & Utterly contradicatory.....The Albino Rock X Burms Hybrid. I see why some frown upon Hybrids.

I like the anti-hybrid community being as adamant as they are. Even though our " pure" snakes ( in general ) are not suitable for reintroduction's into the wild, their , "pure line status" must be protected from any such "pollutants" and keep hybridization AS " a rare occurrences in Herpetoculture" ( UNLESS YOUR NAME IS SATAN ) By "a rare occurrence" I mean the ratio of "Purists" to "Pro hybrid types who are successful in their breeding trials"

I think the balance of the "Purists" to "Hybridizers" will ensure there are always, herpetoculturally speaking, "pure gene" lines represented in the captive environment.

I would NEVER want to sway an Anti-Hybrid herpetoculturists to the side of a Pro-Hybrid herpetoculturists. The more "Purists" the better, but I can't see one existing without the other in his "Hobby". So there will always be "pure lines" and "hybrid lines" as long as the one continues to out weigh the other.
