I've seen a couple hybrids in the field. I have heard of a lot more. It also depends on which areas we are talking about. For instance Mtn kings in Calif are less likely to hybridize.Same with rubber boas and rosy boas. But widespread areas where there are no seperate lifezones like the southeast and many parts of the southwest and northwest you will find more hybrdization of spefically the ratsnake-kingsnbake-pitophus groups. I don't know that much about the midwest so i can't personally speak on that. I have seen some hybrid longnose and groundsnakes and I am sure that the banded gecko breeds with the switaks gecko quite frequently. In Florida it is just a big hodgepodge of stuff out there. Mexico and central/south america i am sure it is worse.
