ya'know what doug as i read through your post and others i see a real personal tone basically an attack/hate tone, its quite disturbing. this is a hobby we all love otherwise we wouldnt be here. we are weird freeky snake people why further division in our small group of people with your hate? what or who does it serve? intergradation happens naturally its the natural progression of wildlife. hobby snakes are dead to nature that means they cannot taint,hurt,destroy nat.pops. of course thats a whole nuther conversation and maybe im wrong but beleive thats not your prob. so much as natural variants(ssp.) being lost within the hobby. when the fact is if nat.pops of a given ssp. are gone for whatever reason and all we have left are a few individuals then intergrading may be the only option to save them so far as i know thats not the case with ANY getulus ssp. beauty is in the eye of the beholder many hobbiest breed for beauty, even locale breedings loose the wild type look after many generations. point is crosses are here and out there many done decades ago and released as the new thing then to be now accepted as pure lineage proven morphs. i apprecieate locale breeders and i love wild types but i and many love morphs and crosses as well as mixing the 2 if you really think the progeny of said offspring is going to destroy wild type locales within the hobby then dont buy them serious breeders dont and are very scrupulous on aquiring breeders. bottom line is i am not contaminating anything liten up a little, ill be at daytona and would love to talk at length then, and post like yours below i copied are really uncalled for man,,,,,

dont hate, apprecieate,,,thomas davis



...same mentality as those "snow" floridana x nigra mutts you produced are the same thing.



I guess the main objective of people like you is to contaminate as many pure strains of snake in the hobby as possible,...right!



a better question would be..."where do YOU draw the line?",....and the answer to that is quite obvious!...
