Rainer, if he bred it to another like hybrid snake from the same locality, that would be totally well and good in my

So only from that locality? What if it is 50/50 and not exactly the same percent hybrid as that one appears? What if he bred it to another gophersnake or kiingsnake from that locale?

but I just wouldn't breed it to any of my genuine subspecies in my collection, that's all.

Is "genuine" locality specific or any kingsnake from that sub species area? What about a breeding a calif king from Long beach to a calif king from san diego? Is that genuine? Or a black and white cal king that is already mixed from different areas..is that genuine? What is genuine??


Just wondering because this snake does throw a wrench into the debates we have had here recently. I think defining these snakes as pure is nonense. As i said in previous posts hybridization happens all the time in nature and one or the other spp gets absorbed making it "unpure" . Even if from nature.

It boils down to whatever makes one THINK they are happy. Otherwise life is short and we are all going to die soon anyway. That is why I think these debates are silly but entertaining.

Merry Christmas!~
