>>>You know this is one reason I like working with Corns snakes. I can take a Corn from the Keys and bred it to one from Virginia and no-one cares cause it's still a Corn snake! Corn snakes are fun to breed cause you mix them all up and maybe make something new.>>>

This is true with most Sp.,Cal kings, Fl. Kings,Mntn. Kings,and so on.....But people look for the Trait on a geographic variant as with cichlids species from the rift lakes of Africa,geographic mutts of the same species and genera are usually frowned upon because of worry of muddying up a collection of true breeding variants
The Florida king is just a peninsular variant of L.G.G.(IMHO)and the Goini is also just a Geovariant lgg that is so variable in appearance due to probably only being localized for a shorter period of time ,Outer Banks scream L.G.G..Evolution is a maker these variants such as tree snakes are green ,sidewinders are sandy , etc...... Which makes them appealing or not,i too like locality animals, as well as morphed sub species.
