I think you took my comment as an affront to you. Your comment about seven pairs just triggered a thought/response: I was just trying to point out that to truly mimic a natural "locale", let it do its job. And I might consider it a stretch to assume by collecting a pair from the same area, your manufactured coupling is the exact one nature would have done.
Kinda reminds me of a comment Stephen Wright (sp?) made about have a seashell collection: he keeps it scattered on beaches all over the world.
This quote from your post sums up my sentiments:
"Most of what we do as breeders is as Tony says, it is for us first. The snakes don't benefit from us keeping them, unless they were slated for death by plowing or becoming road jerky."
It IS for us first, and we choose our position, choose our method of justification, and serve ourselves.
No offense was intended.
