>>Well all i can say is the only thing you would be doing is possibly "polluting pure breds" as some BCI guys would say when questioned about hybrids. Point is, if you sell one of those snakes that ever comes from the breeding its out to the public and can easily be mistaken as something its not now. In my eyes if you put a peruvian in front of someone who is only breifly educated on rainbow boa's 9 out of 10 times they will just say that its a BRB. So lets say someone like that gets ahold of your peru/braz hybrid

But IS it even a hybrid, especially given that the Peruvian subspecies is no longer considered valid?
