I was impressed with Keith's last post enough to try and drag together all the anecdotal info people have into a clearer and concise history of each morph. All too often this type of info is just lost and all that remains are what is heard 3rd hand....I'll start: Albino Eastern kings came from a wc TN(or TN valley-there is a little missing info here)snake that was sold to Kevin at NERD around 92.He bred it and it shortly passed away so all that remained were hets.He then brought Tom Chaing into the picture and Tom has been producing them ever since ....00-01?? To my knowledge there are no other hybrids or intergrades carrying this gene.

With all the genes out there it would be nice to see who has done what with what(can we include intergrades as these are more and more common---and they differ from hybrids).As Tony D says perfectly, once we start producing morphs the idea of purity is kinda lost anyway...let just try and produce the nicest looking kings!
