i must say that hybrids what ever percent are only worth what the buyer is willing to pay. AT LEAST THE SELLER TOLD YOU THAT ITS NOT PURE. BUT HE ID HAVE TO GUESS AT THE PERCENTAGE OR FLAT OUT LIE
but to the "98% pure" no way its either hybrid or not i dont believe in percentages when it comes to hybrids that are not first generation. for example:
corn x rat = 50/50 this is true because no matter what 50 % of each parent must contribute to that snake.
now you breed 2 siblings together 50/50 x 50/50 = 50/50 right yes and no. each parent provides 50% of its genetics to the siblings but when one or both parents have mixed blood their is no way to know where that 50% is going to come from! it could pass on 25%rat and 25%corn or 37.65% corn and 12.35%rat no way to know.
p.s. this is not aimed at you its just a venue to rant and rave.
