Well, that's what that forum is for, and where the question belonged. If there is a hybrid forum,.....ummm. By all means, do what you want but please be responsible about labeling the offspring.It is also the the peoples' right that want to maintain locality and specificity to do so.
The other day I see an ad for Mexican/Texan bairdi. All within the rights of the breeder. The person could have outcrossed the animal to a different line of Mexican animals, both losing and preserving some locality. But putting the Texan snakes into it made it a no-go for me, because I choose to work with locality snakes, although they are some damn fine snakes, lol! I am considering outcrossing mine to another line of Mexican animals, because they may well be a different subspecies, if you go in for that. You can bet that I will label them accordingly. You may make a sell on one side, but you definitely shut the door on the other!
