" I just find it comical and hypocritical when the big name breeders mix rat and corns and no one says a word"





Have you asked "everyone", or taken a pole?, I'm 100% certain this is not the case. If you were to ask Brian Barczyk, Mark Bell, Bill Love(mainly years ago), Lee Abbott, or any other large-scale breeder you could possibly think of, they would tell you this has been mentioned to them many countless times as a matter of fact.



But I'm not voicing my opinion again about it to try and stir things up any more, I only mentioned this because you stated that "no one" ever says a word to the big breeders. In fact I'm even quite sure that over the years they have heard opinions about this even MORE than the newer, smaller breeders, this would only seem very logical.



Also, the word "pure" is definitely relative, and the term "genuine" subspecies would be far more accurate, as all snakes have evolved into their own natural entities over countless aeons of time from many different geological sources.
