Yup, that's a hybrid. The problem is, if you breed that into Hondurans for example, even after many generations where the snakes look like pure Hondurans, they won't be pure. Then what happens to all of those purple ghost and snow Hondurans? Well, we can't release them into the wild to bolster wild populations, so you've ruined that plan.

I suggest you don't breed it. And don't take it to the beach. And feed it in a separate container so it miraculaously knows not to bite in the cage but knows its OK to bite in the separate container, somehow..

It will make a fine addition to any collection. And it looks better with every shed. And its possible het.
