>>I am debating with myself if purity of subspecies matters with regards to the various morphs out there these days. Most of the breeders who perfected them have their secret recipe and we just have to accept whether or not we like that particular morph of "subspecies" enough to forget about the "how" and work with them because WE LIKE THEM. Regardless if there are pure hypo puebs out there, I am sure the reality of mixed hypos getting crossed into any pure hypos accidentally by breeders is too prevalent to worry really worry about it IMHO.


Well said. Not to beat a dead horse here, but it seems as though the only way to validate "purity" of any "subspecies" is to have actually caught and bred the specimens yourself. And even that leads to questions with some individuals. Oh well ... life is too short ... enjoy!
