The reason we have a "guess the locality" contest every once in a while is because IDing NA milks is a lost art. Back when there were locality breeders, before morphs, there used to be lots of guys so capable. I look around the hobby and the only one left I see is Shannon Brown. Shannon is a west coast guy, he was always best at the western ssp.. Anyways, no one gets to see enough WC locality snakes even with the cool pics nowadays. Its too easy to cross localities, states, subspecies. Before breeding was big business it used to be FUN for us hobbyists. It used to be about relationships, you used to be able to take guys to your secret spot and it used to be kept secret. Stuff like that.

Chris, if I say something its not because I want to say it, its because I think people should know it wasnt always this way...disposable snakes at shows etc. I look at a milk alot different than most people, and when it looks odd it usually is.
